for a very large graphql api maybe? I've seen long compiles with a combo of Absinthe, Phoenix, and Elm. Also if you are not a little careful about dependency cycles it can get messy. It is an easy thing to check in CI via mix xref graph --format cycles --fail-above

Ah yeah great callout, that's very plausible. We used Absinthe heavily to power our GraphQL API.
