Really though? It usually means:
* The fixes can require non-trivial changes that take an unknown amount of time to fix
* The client has to pay you for something that probably wasn't budgeted
* You have to fit in more work. If you're good at getting clients and you have a full schedule, it can throw a wrench in.
I'm not sure most freelance devs delight in doing suddenly imposed "performance work." Maybe the first time or two it's interesting, after that it's just annoying.
