Bytecodes compiler used in this build from repl is one-pass with very little optimizations, so it is not surprising. Natively compiled code is much faster.

Should it be possible to implement an optimization compiler? so that compiling the code in the web page produces results similar to ECL or sbcl?
With enough code - yes. But not right now. You may precompile to native though.
