Interestingly enough albeit tangential, I haven't even byte-compiled my
personal elisp files in *decades*.  I just load them from source, which works
much better with having them under a vcs.  Performance (startup or runtime)
hasn't been a problem since I made the switch.

I'm not suggesting that for all of Emacs's elisp of course.
