It just means firing animation is quicker. Typically archer type units have long setup animations where as units with gunpowder firearms aim their rifle/musket and fire instantly. This makes the arrow release fire at a similar rate to a skirm would fire a rifle. Very useful if you are chasing someones cavalry around.
