Hi all, I started looking into Rhino documentation and it states that rhino contains
"A JavaScript compiler to transform JavaScript source files into Java class
files".


I assume cocoon uses Rhino in interpreted way so my questions are:

- is it at all useful to transform script into Java classes (performance)?
- does it affect continuations? I mean are continuations supported in
"compiled javascript" ?



Rhino has different modes to compile scripts. The one used to support continuations doesn't allow generating class files. However, the script is compiled into "rhino bytecodes" which are interpreted by a "Rhino VM".
