Well, yeah, that's the thing- getting maximal performance out of

Thanks for the info- it works just fine now. A couple of questions,
though:
1- How would I change the 'classes' directory to something else?
2- Can I still use/require other files that haven't been compiled
ahead of time?
Much obliged.
