Yep, the XHTML is what I'm referring to. What takes so much time in a JSP engine is actually compiling the generated .java code into a .class file. So the "benefit" of pre-compiling is an artifact of the fact that you're bothering to generate a .java file in the first place. Facelets doesn't have to do that - xhtml file -> tag hierarchy, one step, instead of jsp file -> .java file -> .class file -> loaded class -> tag hierarchy.
