I'm not actually complaining, but I do notice every single time I fire up a REPL. The more code that you have, the longer it takes. It's basically completely thwarting the JVM's attempt to lazily load classes. I have the same complaint about JRuby and Scala. Scala cheats a little, and their REPL prints a prompt before actually loading the classes. Honestly, I think it's a reasonable penalty to pay for a system that is both dynamic and very fast.
