Description

Lengthy description posted on the mailing list. In short: GSE does not cache compiled classes right (it uses as the last-modified timestamp the time of compilation instead of the last-modified attribute of the source file). This can lead to needless recompilation of shared classes, especially under heavy load and heavy concurrency.
