Option 1 isn't really viable for a production system. There are times when the PHBs want to make a minor change in an included file and the easiest way to deal with it is to just make the change in the production server and touch all of the files. Option two is problematic as well since it involves stopping the server which means that you have to stop handling requests.
I have another option: don't use JSP. Use Velocity http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/ either alone or with a framework (such as <shameless-plug>JPublish http://www.jpublish.org/ </shameless-plug>).
