It seems pretty fast to me.  I seem to recall that a few years
ago the Factor folk were trying to equal the speed of GForth
(not to mention gforth-fast).

You may not realize it, but processors in personal computers
are much faster than they used to be.  People used to run
"serious applications" on Macintoshes and Amigas equipped with
MC68000 processors.  Now those applications can be written in
languages that are not as fast as C.

However, GForth and other ANS Forths are low-level languages;
it's much easier to program applications in a high-level language.
