I must confess I never got around to experimenting with it =( But thanks for bringing attention to it, and I'm sure this will get back on my plate as the IronPython team triages these issues for the next version.
Have you tried importing on a background thread to speed things up? That would be a useful sample to have out there, and I know Michael has done this successfully (and SilverShell had a way of toggling this).

I'd like to see it working as it is quite an issue for business apps.

In theory you can do it by hand by just taking the resulting DLL that gets compiled on the desktop and updating all of the assembly versions to be the Silverlight assembly versions. That can be done by sending it through ildasm/ilasm. You'd need to update all of the IronPython and DLR assemblies as well as mscorlib and System all of which have different versions on Silverlight vs the desktop CLR. For the record I tried this and it didn't work for me. The resulting assembly uses StrongBox (from memory) and possibly other features not available in CoreCLR. I would also love to see a solution to this as import time is a big factor in the startup of IronPython Silverlight apps and pre-compiled assemblies would help a lot.
