I don't usually.  In this case I was working at reducing my startup time
(from ~3 secs to ~1 sec). 

My init is broken up into about 2 dozen files; logical groupings like some 
major modes I typically use, mac settings, gnus stuff, magit stuff,
dired, minor modes, etc.  I load each with a function that times the load
and prints it out with some gc info.  Here's part of what I saw:

Loaded in   0.21ms with 0 gcs hrm-funcs
Loaded in   1.08ms with 0 gcs hrm-frame
Loaded in   1.11ms with 0 gcs hrm-tabs
Loading /Users/hmelman/.emacs.d/recentf...done
Cleaning up the recentf list...
File /Users/hmelman/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~md~obsidian/Documents/Film Lists/Alfred Hitchcock.md removed from the recentf list
Cleaning up the recentf list...done (1 removed)
Repeat mode is enabled for 14 commands and 7 keymaps; see `describe-repeat-maps'.
Loaded in 252.90ms with 0 gcs hrm-minor.....VERY LONG
Loaded in  42.70ms with 0 gcs hrm-packages.....LONG
Loaded in   2.03ms with 0 gcs hrm-help
Loaded in   0.73ms with 0 gcs hrm-git

As I said in the OP:

Since nothing else printed out stuff I thought it might have been
a mistake that the new repeat-mode command did.
