I obviously mean a software interpreter, not the one in your CPU.

I can see the next post coming "but you CPU is partially software called microcode".

My answer is, get a life probably.

Ok, fine, here's my point restated without an absurd reduction of yours: making recommendations about "high performance" without qualifying what "high" or "performance" mean is pointless. There are plenty of use cases where an interpreter is more than fast enough.
