I hate REPLs. I also hate large compile times.
For me the hardest part of the ~5s compile time is not waiting, it's the
watching of the progress of the auto build and waiting until exactly that
moment
before pressing reload in the browser.
That being said, I find "run this currently selected code block in my
connected browser" functionality in editors (lighttable is the one I
use/know) to be
the best solution to this problem. It's painful as hell at first though.
I had a work around in the past via a fork of noir-cljs which would delay
the load of the .js files until compile completed via some hacks but
now that I've switched to a browser <> editor work flow I find myself doing
as much work as possible in the editor via the "run it in the browser REPL"
script tag trick from lighttable that I'm no longer even noticing compile
times. I leave them to the end of the pomodoro.
