    Well, my desktop machine is a 133MHz Pentium.

It would be useful for you to try nulling out menu bar precomputation,
and see if you notice any slowdown on that machine.

    In short: I think that the average processing power of machines
    typically running Emacs might be severely below the average of "in use
    today".

It could well be true.
