Description
Currently, it takes more than 2 seconds to load the package `juliacall` in Python, before importing any Julia package or running Julia code:
```
$ time python -c "from juliacall import Main as jl"
real 0m2.355s
user 0m3.104s
sys 0m0.156s
```
This can be a disadvantage compared with calling C++ instead of Julia to offload heavy computations outside Python, depending on the workflow. Is there a way to compile a Julia system image to make the startup much faster?
