Just as a matter of interest, approximately how much faster is Guile
bytecode than Emacs bytecode? Are we talking about 10%, 20%, 50%, a
factor of 2, or even higher?
If that speed increase was significant, it might be worth incorporating
Guile's bytecode into Emacs just for that reason, regardless of any of
the other stuff.
