On the contrary, it is evident.

Do we have a set of benchmarks in Elisp that everyone agrees
are good, and that can output data easily to show the results?
Didn't you do that with an ASCII table in a previous post?

Maybe I can use that source with minimal modifications to get
them to run in CL, so we can compare more broadly, but also in
an agreed-upon way. So it will not be about what really
matters or what people really use etc, it will only be about
performing as good as possible on those benchmarks, without
cheating obviously ;)
