[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider ]]]

All else being equal, it is useful to speed up Emacs Lisp execution,
but that should not take priority over other desirable goals.
Bytecode has many advantages for Emacs. It is portable, it is simple,
it is fast to generate, and it doesn't break.
For most purposes, this is more important than execution speed. Most
Emacs commands' speed is limited in practice by the speed of the
user's typing. The few exceptions, in my usage, are limited by
the speed of searching large buffers.
