Hi, you both raise a couple of good points.
All things considered, I lean towards John's point of view. There's much to say for on-demand compilation. - resource use scales with number of agents - scaling can be influenced via intervals - admins can predict the need for recompilation and trivially schedule it by having agents check in Yes, there can be peak load when many agents check in during a short interval. I can't really see a way around that. I would consider it more problematic to make it impossible to trigger a couple of quick recompilations for a large number of nodes (think ad hoc changes to larger cluster or cloud).
