Unfortunately I'm an emacs acolyte + Geiser and as a result was not getting the zos built that DrRacket would have given me for free. So the slow down I experienced were more than what they would be for most people. Self induced issue. Ultimately I pushed down a lot of the "standard" code into several raco linked local planet libs and as they stabilized started raco fileinject'ing them locally. This helped quite a bit.
Somehow I missed 'raco make' to build the core non-lib code. Thanks for that one.
