Description
Should we crossgen the compiler for .NET Core as part of build?
We NGEN fsc.exe as part of our build. However as far as I know we don't crossgen fsc.exe for .NET Core within the build (though my understanding is that it is crossgen'd on install)
This leads to much slower test execution for .NET Core versions of tests that invoke the .NET Core compiler via command line build, e.g.
