Hm. Makes me wonder, actually, if a hand-written eval loop in assembly code might not kick some serious butt.
Not enough to be worth it, I'd hazard.
Or maybe a bytecode-to-assembly translator, writing loads in-line and using registers as the stack, calling functions where necessary. Ah, if only I were a teenager again, with little need to sleep, and unlimited time to hack... :)
This exists already, though. I'll let you guess the name.
