If the pertinent value of `important-object` can be represented in
Racket space without performing `long-computation` (such as in
`read`-able structures, or with constructors and hard-earned constants),
sometimes I run `long-computation` once, copy&paste the result to a
variable assignment in the Definitions window, and temporarily
comment-out the call to `long-computation.
;; (define important-object (long-computation))
;; important-object
(define important-object
(make-foo 4 8 15 16 23 42))
Soon after initial REPL coding, this turns into unit tests, where you
will probably want to be able to use intermediate or partial
representations anyway, for speed of in-line tests and/or for test
granularity.
