As someone who has started to explore (and enjoy) elm, I have to say that speed is not one of the major selling points for me. Rather, seeing that it has at least competitive speed is just dodging a potential deal breaker. It could smother me in kittens and do my taxes, but if a framework only renders three frames per second, I definitely won't use it. Elm being in the same ballpark (slightly better? slightly worse? doesn't matter) means that I can see if the other features of the language entice me to try it out. They did, I did, and I really like it (even though apps that use random a lot end up being structured in a way that is strange to my brain).
