The Javadoc for both methods is pretty self-explanatory too:

public boolean performClick ()

Call this view's OnClickListener, if it is defined. Performs all normal actions associated with clicking: reporting accessibility event, playing a sound, etc.

public boolean callOnClick ()

Added in API level 15

Directly call any attached OnClickListener. Unlike performClick(), this only calls the listener, and does not do any associated clicking actions like reporting an accessibility event.
