It does. There's still no multithreading support in emacs core, its LISP interpreter is extra-slow for anything serious. And in general, it simply sucks to write extensions.

Both multithreading and really quite impressive Lisp speedups are being worked on right now (the former in a branch). It's not a modern Lisp like SBCL, but it's certainly getting faster all the time (when things like bidi text don't come along to slow it down again, heh heh).
This is being done without a total rewrite.
