[IronPython] Did you find any purpose to compile IronPython code to DLL using pyc.py

[Max Belugin]

Can you get me some advice about decreasing startup time?

Should I use one engine with multiple modules or multiple engines?

What sre perspectives? Will DLR solve this prproblem?

This is source of my loader (I am creating one engine instace for each script):

using FarManager;
using System.Reflection;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.IO;
using IronPython.Hosting;
using IronPython.Modules;
public class IronPythonLoader : BasePlugin
{
	protected string PluginFile(string name)
	{
       	FileInfo fi=new FileInfo(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
       	return fi.Directory.Parent.FullName+"\\"+name;
    }
    protected void LoadScript(string fileName)
    {
		PythonEngine engine = new PythonEngine();
		engine.AddToPath(Path.GetDirectoryName(fileName));
		engine.Import("site");		
		ClrModule clr =  (ClrModule)engine.Import("clr");

		
		EngineModule engineModule = engine.CreateModule("__main__", false);
        engine.DefaultModule = engineModule;

		clr.AddReferenceByPartialName("FarNetIntf");
		engine.Import("FarManager");
		engine.Globals["far"] = Far;
		engine.ExecuteFile(fileName);
    }
	override public void Connect()
	{
		string scriptsFolder = PluginFile("Scripts");
		foreach(FileInfo file in new DirectoryInfo(scriptsFolder).GetFiles())
			LoadScript(file.FullName);
	}
}
