You wouldn't have to install the JDK(or the JVM for that matter, unless you
are running applets as well as servlets) on every users machine only the
server
that is running tomcat. The way JSP works is it is a server side technology
(hence the Server in Java Server Pages). The servlet, or jsp, is run
on the server and the HTML/XML/WML/... that is generated is then streamed
down to the user who made the request. The compilation would only
occur at server startup not at client startup. This would be relatively
transparent to all users(might cause a slight bubble of time at server
startup but it wouldn't be too significant and it would only be once).
