Time to first plot should be all but solved as of v1.9.0 (first stable release ~two days ago).

It's not going to be solved. Stop saying this. It's a great step forward and a real user experience improvement, but it doesn't solve it.

Packages need to precompile, and they don't. They need to fix invalidations, and they don't. They need to fix inference issues in their packages and they don't. "Using" time remains quite high.

"solved" is a big claim. better to just let the speed speaks for itself. ttfp is still somewhat of an issue
Technically we've only released the first release candidate for 1.9. There's still a few bugs in it, and we'll probably have at least 1 more release candidate before 1.9.0 is released.
