I've just tested it -- it's not.
The I<startup.pl> file and similar loaded via C<PerlModule> or
C<PerlRequire> are compiled only once. Because once the module is
compiled it enters the special C<%INC> hash. When Apache
restarts--Perl checks whether the module or script in question is
already registered in C<%INC> and won't try to compile it again.
