Not quite correct -- servlets are already compiled, the difference is
that on the first invocation, the servlet is loaded into the JVM.
Whether that accounts for the entire time difference here, I do not
know, and may require further looking in to.
Now, JSP pages, if changed since the last invocation (or if there was
no previous invocation), do get compiled when invoked.
Some servlet containers/engines allow servlets to be pre-loaded. If
the original poster is using one that does allow this, they can try it
out to see how the response time changes.
Similarly, some servlet containers/engines allow JSP pages to be
pre-compiled.
