Good thing to consider. On my slow machine it takes 6 minu= tes to tangle my init and on my faster machine 1.5 minutes so I follow the = static approach.

Emacs is a little cumbersome. Please correct me if I'm wrong in this assumption. I also have a sync script hooked into my tangling that has
to do with exporting some of my config sections to my gopher site so
they're always up to date, so maybe it's just that my tangling
experience is especially involved.

Here's what I do. Since I probably only edit my config ~10% of the time= s
that I open Emacs, it seems easier to just have a statically-tangled
init file, so I just basically use C-c C-v C-t instead of C-x C-s to
save my init.org. I also = use somewhat customized init files on a few
different hosts which share the same .emacs.d. They share come common
functionality and differ slightly, so there are a few init files tangled into ~/.emacs.d of the form hostname.el and the init.el file is
basically a switch which chooses which one to load on startup.
