I call this hotspot fallacy and it is a common one. This assumes there is relatively small performance critical parts that can be rewritten in assembly. Yes, sometimes there is a hotspot, but by no means always. A lot of people caring about 1% is running gigabytes binary on datacenter scale computer without hotspots.
