For what I've seen, reusing something like the Mono native backend
(available for major processor architectures)  can yield even higher
performance gains.
A custom tailored VM in assembler can provide 100x and possibly more
depending on the architecture.

30x actually looks very conservative to me, but may well be worth the
effort to reuse an already existing codebase.
