Most of the time Emacs is really 'snappy' (is that the right English
word?) - everything responds immediatly and fast. So it seems the raw
execution speed often doesn't really matter. However, its nice to know
where the limits are. Good to hear that there is some momentum towards
more speed for Elisp.
