On VS Code though, I haven’t been able to get the julia-vscode extension working with it: WSL2: `Failed to precompile LanguageServer` / `Could not start the Julia language server` · Issue #3202 · julia-vscode/julia-vscode · GitHub
I did another comparison test, this time on julia 1.8 (.5)
mkdir timetest1.8
julia-1.8 --project=timetest1.8 -e "using Pkg; pkg\"add https://github.com/tfiers/MyToolbox.jl#11629da\""
julia-1.8 --project=timetest1.8 --startup-file=no -e "@time using MyToolbox"
Windows:
6.992547 seconds (5.05 M allocations: 335.846 MiB, 5.57% gc time, 44.51% compilation time: 86% of which was recompilation)
WSL2:
5.466033 seconds (4.47 M allocations: 303.886 MiB, 4.65% gc time, 43.14% compilation time: 83% of which was recompilation)
Again, slightly different timings each run, but WSL2 consistently about 30% faster, just like on julia 1.9 above.
Also, interestingly, the import times actually decreased from 1.8 → 1.9, just like what KrisC predicted and contrary to what I feared in the OP.
Now, actual profiling, and back on 1.9.0-beta3
(running under julia --startup-file=no --project=timetest from above; also I changed the mincount to 200 instead of 4, as otherwise Discourse wouldn’t let me post that many characters)

I tested the first and second time to plot on a number of different machines using Julia 1.9-beta3.
Test:
@time @eval using Plots; display(scatter(rand(1_000)))
First timing is after a fresh start of the machine. On Windows I also launched the task manager and waited until the cpu load was below 10% before running the test.
The second timing is from running the same command after restarting Julia, but not the computer.
The first time-to-plot on Windows was nevertheless varying a lot.
On the same hardware the first time-to-plot on Linux is about 1.7 times shorter than with Windows (2.78s vs 4.73s), the second time-to-plot 1.76 times faster (2.03s vs 3.58s).
The second time-to-plot as defined here is relevant for people who are not using Revise, but restart Julia after changing their code.
Using a 4 years old mid- or high end CPU should be fast enough if you are using Linux. First-time-to plot on low and mid-end CPUs on Windows is still something that could be improved.
