Nope, fresh 3.9g-7055 image.  I develop in 3.7 which is fairly snappy. 
3.9 seems a tad slower.  Most notable is the pause when I select a
method in the browser.  This might have to do with the syntax
highlighting.  Anyway it took me a while to get used to 3.7...3.9 might
be the same way.  I plan to play with it more now that Milan got me
interested in MathMorphs.  So much cool stuff lurking around in Squeak!
