hrm, either i am completely off on what i think would happen if this suggestion is implimented or I didn't explain myself well enough.

My computer: Athlon 64, 2.3ghz, 1gb ram, WinXP ( Family computer, lots of extra junk in memory )
If i even change a comma in a script, it takes about 3 minutes to start the server.
If i change nothing and it loads the cache, it only takes about 20 seconds to start the server.

My thinking is:
1. Compile \Workbench - I changed a script, so compile everything in this folder.
2. Compile \Scripts - I didn't make any changes to anything, so just load the Scripts.dll as cache
3. Everything compiled or loaded, server starts.

What i am thinking would happen is that instead of 3 minutes for the server to start, it would take a "small amount of time" longer than 20 seconds....
("small amount of time" depending on the number and size of the scripts in \Workbench)

Unless my thinking is flawed, (entirely possible) time savings would be significantly greater than a few seconds...

P.S. Thanks for replying Phantom, if anyone can tell me i am off my rocker, it's you
