No. It does not force a recompile on each access. JSPs need to be read 
completely twice during the compilation phase. In memory caching improves the 
performance of the second read. How noticeable this is will depend on your 
application and the host where Tomcat is running.

I'd expect there to be some form of read cache for disk access. The split 
between OS and hardware will be system dependent.
