For whatever it's worth, https://gist.github.com/1109203 shows the difference in timings between an optimized and non-optimized parrot. In general, on my machines running Parrot without --optimize causes programs to take twice as long. Both Rakudo and NQP are hardwired to pass "--optimize" to Parrot's configuration when building Parrot with "--gen-parrot" , because Parrot's default (no --optimize) really makes sense only for Parrot developers and not Parrot users.
