The macro language uses strings as internal data representation, so no,
you can't speed up pixel by pixel operations.

I would use the macro language for very high level sequences of comands
only, such as open an image, run a plugin on it, save the result and
close it. Everything else is iddle play; a java plugin will work orders
of magnitude faster.
