I finally got my application [1] to build using Racket 6.3 after working 
around the problem with using plot-snip% objects [2].  Unfortunately, now 
while building the application, Racket 6.3 uses between 1.5 and 3 Gb of 
RAM, while Racket 6.1.1 only used between 0.5 and 0.8 Gb or ram to do the 
same thing.  Once built, the application takes about 60 seconds or more to 
start up, compared to the version built using Racket 6.1.1 which takes 
about 3-5 seconds to start up.  Once it started up, the application is just 
as responsive as the previous version, so the problem is only during 
startup.

For reference, I'm using 64bit Racket versions on a Windows machine.

Could someone provide some starting points for trying to diagnose the cause 
of this?   I'm not really familiar with the Racket internals.

BTW, if anyone wants to build the application using Racket 6.1.1, you have 
to drop the last two commits of the master branch, as they contain the 
workaround to make the code work in Racket 6.3.

Thanks,
Alex.
