Is that why I had to use assembly code instead of C for some parts of my
previous projects?
There was even one example
One point that might be interesting, you do include C++ in your post.
Therefore some compare/contrast of C++ class member function
invocation rate versus Lisp object method invocation rate might be
meaningful. I'm sure if you Google back through comp.lang.lisp you
will find plenty on it already.

For crying out loud, the best any compiler can do is make optimal
machine language. Many C compilers can do that over most inputs. So
can many Lisp compilers if you give the right type data. So it's a
moot point.
The only point to discuss would be that Scheme - in the R5 version of
the spec at

This has what to do with Python?
