[racket] Long compilation+launch times

Oh, that explains it. When it is in a collection, then drracket's
auto-compile feature disables itself, since collections are not
generally assumed to be writeable (as they are, roughly speaking the
"standard libraries" and could be in some shared place).

You can work around this by explicitly calling mzc periodically from a
shell (but you must be sure to call it if you change exported
identifiers (or anytime you get a strange error)).
