This looks a little worse than I expected, but in general, modules in
Typed Racket incur some startup time overhead.  Right now, this is
inherent in the architecture of how Typed Racket modules communicate
with each other, and the semantics of `require' in Racket.  The plan
is that adding "facets" or "sub-modules" will allow this time to be
reduced or eliminated, but right now you can't avoid it.
