Unless there's a new option I missed, guix gc doesn't handle this.

I don't think that things should be pushed into guix gc merely because they are 
slow.

This is not a great post (I'd look at the git code if I were at a computer) but 
I remember git printing something like 'optimising repository in the 
background'.  Maybe something similar would be appropriate here, to better hide 
such housekeeping from the user.
