Well, if you're really concerned about performance, I'd suggest you "preload" these files (in which case it doesn't matter if you bytecompile or not).

Use temacs to dump out an executable which already has these files preloaded. It saves a lot of time. It's outalined in the "Building emacs" section of the Elisp manual (21.1 +)

PS: Thanks to all who promptly responded to my query about compiling a light emacs. The prompt and helpful emails was much appriciated.
