Maybe not.  The compiler will improve performance for many areas of computation, but the biggest bottleneck for animation frame rates is the rendering subsystem, which would be largely unaffected by code compilation.

Klaus offered to file a bug report for you. He was being helpful. Nowhere in this discussion has he or anyone else placed boundaries on what you write here. 
 
Please don't project persecution imaginings onto Klaus.  He's consistently been among the most helpful people in this community.
