Hmm... indeed, I got to 0.72s with his patch (on a different, slower
machine (a Thinkpad X201s, i.e. with a i7 CPU L620 @ 2.00GHz)).

If I re-add international/characters it goes up a bit to
0.96s, but still nowhere near the 3s I got on my big .elc file.
[ I wonder what makes loading my big file so slow.  ]

This said, there's still a factor 5-10 to get to "immediate", tho.
