15% faster on top of a base interpreter that itself got 40%-50% faster on the same timeframe.

Right... but it's still only 15% faster than a simpler alternative. In a language that is 50x slower than the alternatives. Clearly not worth it.

Of course the counterargument is that they'll improve it and maybe in future it will be 100% faster... But that seems pretty dubious given the progress so far.
