I thought that might be the case.  Out of curiosity, have you compared
to treating everything implicitly and using a relaxation split so that
preconditioning of the slow physics (maybe with Jacobi) didn't interfere
with the treatment for the stiff physics?  

Also note that "burying the explicit integrator in function evaluation"
(do you have a shorter name for this?) may not be performant with a many
stage integrator since the cost of the explicit integrator is
essentially quadratic in the number of stages.
