Number don't need to be "that great", just "good enough"
All this 80%, 60%, performance means very little to the average person that just wants their old programs to run. It's the propeller heads that over analyze this difference in performance.

Of course running things in emulation/translation will run slower than native. Is this news? If performance is THAT important to the user, you would think you buy/upgrade to a most recent and native version of the application.
