Specs on Crystal 0.36.0 are taking a LONG time

Pretty much. In Docker it’s a much smaller difference than it is on Mac using the homebrew version. Looks like this PR will fix the issues though.

I ran the test from to_i64 takes very long to release-compile · Issue #9654 · crystal-lang/crystal · GitHub with the newly released 0.36.1 and it seems to deff be faster in the codegen bc+obj phase; which took 8.5s versus 39.5s on 0.36.0. Also used just under 2x less memory. I’d be curious to see what affect LLVM11 would have over 10.
