This is a more conservative patch which only saves importing the plot.* modules (about a 50-100ms savings on my computer).

Robert, did you even test this? It seems to fail doctests all over the place. E.g., 

sage -t  devel/sage/sage/calculus/riemann.pyx
**********************************************************************
File "/mnt/usb1/scratch/wstein/sage-4.7.1-sage.math.washington.edu-x86_64-Linux/devel/sage-main/sage/calculus/riemann.pyx", line 114:
    sage: m = Riemann_Map([f, hf], [hf, hfprime], 0.5 + 0.5*I)
Exception raised:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/mnt/usb1/scratch/wstein/sage-4.7.1-sage.math.washington.edu-x86_64-Linux/local/bin/ncadoctest.p
...
ImportError: No module named riemann

It seems like using LazyImport? in any nontrivial way always results in serious breakage that is revealed by doctests. I hit this numerous times myself. Hmmm.

Is anything happening on this? Robert wrote the patch, William says it breaks doctests all over the place, but then it just stalls.
