[Mono-list] can i pre-compile *.asmx for mod-mono-server2?

[aztlan2k]

Thanx Kornél,

It's not really the source code that I want to hide... it's simply wanting
to rid myself of the initial delay that is felt when the web services are
accessed for the first time (because of the compilation having to occur).   
On my system, that compilation time can take anywhere between 15-20
seconds... and after that, every access is only 1 sec or less.  I woiuld
like all accesses, including the first, to be as fast.

Thanx for you reply.

/r/
