Return/Vol Ratio compares 1-year return with annualized volatility. It tries to answer whether the recent payoff was large relative to the amount of instability you had to accept.
This is a fast and intuitive efficiency shortcut. It is useful, but simpler and rougher than more formal risk-adjusted measures.
