Prejitted assemblies don't *have* to be installed to the GAC, however doing so 
can be more optimal since there is less overhead in verifying the assembly 
signature.  A good article on this subject is:

  As an aside, I've always been tought to not assume NGEN will be a performance 
miracle and it shouldn't be arbitrarily done.   In other words:
   
  "Developer:  Setup Dude, I need the install to prejit this assembly."
  "Setup Dude: Why?"
  "Developer: I think it'll speed up my application."
  "Setup Dude: Have you ran it through a profiler?"
  "Developer: No, I haven't"
  "Setup Dude: Don't you think you should?"

                I have one exe and four dlls (all .net) which I have ngenned 
into the GAC. The docs state that when I run my main exe the CLR will look for 
an ngenned version and use that if it is OK to do so.
   
  The conceptual problem I have is that the executable is now in the GAC and 
not in the program files\myapp folder where it used to be so I can’t run it 
anymore. Should I install a non-ngenned copy of the executable and DLL files in 
the main dir as well? It did this before I add the NativeImage element, but now 
it moves them straight to the GAC.
   
  Apologies if this has been asked already, can’t find any references to it.
