I noticed today when working on operator overloads (for default properties) is that there is no attempt to cache anything.

For example every time you it parses “1 + 1” a large code block is entered, lots of dynamic allocations etc… Obviously the resolved overload for integer+integer could be cached, at least on a per-block level. That’s a particularly wasteful detail I noticed and there’s probably many more like this.
