[racket] DrRacket 5.3 [3m] hangs for a while when closing tab with open file

Thanks for the profiling results. Unfortunately, I'm not seeing
something helpful there.

Can you check to see if the preferences file (one of the files in the
.racket directory) is the one that correlates with the slowness and,
if so, send it to me? If not, then hopefully just a listing of what
you've got in there might suggest something.

Thanks,
Robby
