High metabolism means that you can metabolize food quickly and efficiently and in essence Burn it off.
I'm gonna have to disagree on your wording here.... having a high metabolism is in fact in efficient. As your body is wasting energy. If you were in a developing country or in the stone ages (or any place where there is a scare amount of food) you would want to efficiently metabolize your food intake (using only a part of your food for daily functions and the rest for fat build up)

But of course.... efficient is a somewhat subjective word.. because in developed countries we all want to be thin so we want to use most of our intake for daily function).
