You can do some RAM training and if RAM is connected better on your board,
you can sometimes have staggering speed gains.

This is a fairly old Guix though, so not directly comparable.

Could you try with a current Guix?

(Yeah, you=E2=80=99ll have to pull, and that takes verrrrry loong.  Be sure=
 to
pick a commit that=E2=80=99s fully built on
