is fast charging not good for battery performance, or not ?

Is fast-type charging not generally good for battery performance, including heating up battery too much and other, Or not?

I have been using it on my Note 4 for several years. I have not noticed any problems.

Same here

My note 5 gets a little warm at times if my phone is bout dead when I put it on my wireless charger. But that's rare. Most of the time it's all good.

These batteries can handle higher charge rates than any phone will allow, so I wouldn't worry.

Sorry but all the replies so far are wrong. Fast charging and wireless charging are both detrimental to battery longevity. All articles on lithium ion batteries state this. If you plan to keep a phone for more than 2 years avoid fast and wireless charging. Also avoid charging to full and avoid letting the battery go to a low state. Ideally, charge between 40 and 80/90%.

I can't speak to wireless charging, as I haven't done any research on it or used it myself. I have looked into wired charging through various sources (namely Battery University) and fast charging on phones is not too fast for standard Lipo batteries. If you're familiar with C ratings on batteries, Lipos can handle a 1C charge without issue. Most phones don't cross that, even with fast/quick charging (there may be one or two outliers, but I'm speaking in general). I do commonly see 2- 5C charging in some hobby Lipos, and those batteries are designed for it.

Now if you are using the phone, that can possibly add to the heat that can damage a battery, but that's why phones throttle their charge rates when this happens. It's to protect them. If your phone is getting that hot, then it's not the charging rate killing it. Heck, in some cases it could not be charging at all.

My Note Edge has no problems other than the battery is old as hell.
