Hi Prad, I want to follow up on this particular issue: it's very possible that this particular PLaneT package was not properly compiled upon installation. It's very easy to have PLaneT packages half-installed by accident, and the result is insidious: the packages will load, but they will take a long time to do so! If you don't mind, can you try doing the following? Can you use the 'raco make' command on your previous executable? 'raco make' is the command I use to compile my programs so that they load faster at runtime. (See: http://docs.racket-lang.org/raco/make.html for more details.) If the PLaneT package hasn't been compiled, using 'raco make' on your program should be enough to force the PLaneT package to compile. See if using 'raco make' first on your program speeds up its load-time. Good luck! ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
