During setup, Minecraft will analyze your PC performance and then choose the right preset.
It is a fairly common thing to have in a game like this. The only problem I have with the idea is the well known fact that there are lots of people with decent to good PCs who get bad fps for no reason and vice versa. Also, I suppose the fact that it isn't really needed, as you can change your settings right away and you never really need to go back in and change them afterwards.
