However, it does accept a number of performance hits, such as range-testing array references. I'm finding it a bit difficult to imagine that optimizations can make up for these; what am I overlooking?

Writing safe code is a one of the keys to secure code.   Those writing
secure code already range check array references.  I would not be
surprised to find the compiler can do it in a more efficient manner.
Who cares if buggy code can run faster?
