Medium vault faster than quick vault if you do the math?
A medium vault is 0.9 sec.
A quick vault is 0.5 sec.
A survivor walks at 4m/s.
If you go straight for 90 degree the medium vault it will cost you 0.9 sec (0,765 sec with Spine chill and Resilience)
If you walk around the window so that you can run for 2.5 meter for the quick vault it will cost you 0,625 seconds for the 2.5 meters of running and 0.5 sec for the quick vault. This is a total of 1,125 seconds (1,05 sec with Spine chill and Resilience)
IF MY MATH IS CORRECT, does this mean it is better to try juke the killer by not vaulting or just do the 90 degree medium vault?

It's not a problem with math but other factor.
the vault can be divided into 3 parts
> pre-vault, fast vault of cause more quickly than medium
> vaulting, it is the key part, because killer may hit you though the vaulting part, thus you are vaulting but not finished yet.
> vaulted, the vaulting action is finished, and you can control your charactor again.
so the key fator is that fast vault will be more effective than medium vault in vaulting part, because it can finish the whole action in less time.
Your math isn't right. Using those two perks it's ~0,783 seconds (0,9/1,15) for the medium vault and ~0,435 seconds (0,5/1,15) for the fast vault. A 15% increase in speed is not the same thing as a 15% reduction in time spent.
Its not about the speed at which you vault, as much as the continuous momentum you retain after a fast vault. If you medium vault, you will likely still be able to get hit by the killer; however, if you fast vault, the momentum will help you put distance between the window and your character, so the killer's M1 will not reach you. Fast vault > medium vault
