Interesting! Where did you get that version of Xemacs? My xemacs does not
byte-compile the .el-Files on loading (that would take REALLY long) but
instead slows down a bit. 

I don't think it's valid to compare times for LOADING the files. It's quite
simple to load the .el-Files. Try to run some lisp code doing heavy stuff -
e.g. opening a 200k html file with w3.
