A lot globals get constructed there (which also causes code inclusion,
though apc helps). It would be nice to lazy instantiate those via some
common factory with a registry. We spend ~10ms in Setup.php (more in cli
mode), so it won't be that huge. I'd wait on the HHVM gains first to see if
it's still worth doing anything there.

Hi Aaron,
On our team backlog[1], you added[2] the item:
* Setup.php speed improvements and service registry
Tim and I saw this when we were making our prioritization pass, and
didn't know what to make of it, though we're trusting it's a pretty
important idea coming from you. What did you have in mind?
