Which doesn't affect users, so it's reasonably low on the priority list.
Also, I'm far from convinced that an O(log N) lookup of lexical
variables will help very much there (profiling would clearly be needed
to determine the main performance culprit, but I wouldn't be surprised
if it's completely elsewhere as in macro-expansion, for instance).

If we want to speed up bootstrapping, maybe we should aim to bootstrap
without interpreting Elisp code: keep a set of precompiled .elc files,
with which we build bootstrap-emacs.
