I know it's easy, but I know myself, and I'm sure to lose hours of work because, at some point in time, I'll forget to compile the stuff after having made one change. Plus, from the speed comparisons I had done once, I felt the difference as being completely marginal. Do you really notice a speed improvement when using the compiled files?
