This question is impossible to answer in a vacuum. What if the language made developers 90% more productive or 90% less likely to introduce a memory bug or offered 3x faster compiler times? A 1% runtime performance hit would be well worth it if that were the case. Perhaps with the extra time available, developers could find better algorithms/ways of expressing their programs that would ultimately lead to faster runtime performance on average even with the 1% hit in certain microbenchmarks.
