No. It does not force a recompile on each access. JSPs need to be read
completely twice during the compilation phase. In memory caching
improves the performance of the second read. How noticeable this is will
depend on your application and the host where Tomcat is running.
------- Can you share some insight on the OS level caching ? Primarily where
would OS be caching it ?
I'd expect there to be some form of read cache for disk access. The
split between OS and hardware will be system dependent.

I see that the cachingallowed setting is primarily for static content caching.
But considering my application we have a lot of static content data resulting
in almost 100 to 150 MB of heap memory being used because of this caching.
1. Is there any way to do this caching on disk ?
What would be the point of that? That static content is already on disk.
It is being cached in memory to improve performance.
1. My static content is being cached in the browser on client end . any
negative repercussions that I should be aware off if I disable caching on the
tomcat end ? for eg will it impact jsp compilations on the tomcat ? I assume
not as they are not static but wanted to confirm.
JSP source is static content. Disabling caching may impact JSP compilation time
but OS level caching may mitigate that. There many variables that impact
performance. The only way to get true sense of the impact is to measure
performance with caching enabled and disabled and compare the two.
Generally, deploying your application as a WAR file with unpackWARs="false" has the
biggest negative impact on performance. If you deploy with unpackWARs="true" or as a
directory then I suspect the difference will be minimal.
