native-comp speeds up Elisp, and even then there are lots of cases where
the change is hardly noticeable.

Let's say your code spends 90% on the C core and 10% on Elisp. If
native-comp brings a 2x speed up, you'll only observe about 5%
improvement.

C code is opaque to native-comp and puts a hard limit on how much it can
optimize Elisp. Thus I hope that in the future more and more code will
be moved from C to Elisp. And other areas can benefit too: one thing
which IMO has lots of potential is to native-compile regexps.
