For me compiling is not longer about speed at all but it sis about control. 
When you compile you control when and how updates are made. In source 
structures, it iOS too easy to make a change wit h bad results. Compiling 
solves that as you can create release schedules which include testing.

Additionally, compiling assures that all variables are types the way you need 
them to be
