One interesting point Rico brought up when I was showing him the current
experimental version: on my ancient machine (a 400 MHz CPU), MLton grinds for
9.70 CPU seconds before it even opens the files provided in command line
arguments. This must be reading in the basis library and the like. In the
old days this wasn't too bad of a problem because one did not use MLton to
develop code, but now it is a bit of a pain. It seems to me that this is a
strong argument for putting back the save-world after the basis library has
been read in.
