Yeah, I think you are right. i thought putting the gc's in the right place
might force a clear answer, but a few experiments belie that. (If I did

Ethan suggested (time (make-instance.. and that seems to be giving good
answers, but one experiment gave me pause. I'll keep poking, but shucks,
seems to me something the compiler could cough up pretty easily.
