As I understand it Nasal does byte compiling, but there was some question
about whether or not the byte compiled version is saved from one iteration
to the next. I recall Andy saying at one point that the byte compiler is
really fast so it doesn't matter too much ... (?) Probably someone here can
clarify that.
