It will be precompiled when it does, and it will save a lot of time next time it's loaded. Perl does not need that, although of course modularizing will always allow you to use best practices like testing and reuse. That said, it's always good to make things faster. Given Rakudo is written to a large extent in Raku, and Raku is being continuously improved, up to and including the new RakuAST, it will happen. The fact that such a project would involve a deep dive into the different layers of the existing Raku, as well as the new RakuAST, make it possibly a unsuitable candidate for Google Summer of Code.
