Forgot to add: It depends of course on how good is the bytecode.
IMO Python's bytecode is pretty good for its purpose which is
executing a dynamic language with dynamic types and namespaces.

Also, inside pyvm some things are done with internal bytecode
objects.  One such thing is "list(generator)".  It has been
proved that doing this in bytecode is faster than C.
