[IronPython] Hosting DLR under ASP.NET

[Jimmy Schementi]

Recreating them on each call is OK for really simple script usages, since multiple requests of an ASP.NET app run in the same CLR instance, and the result of ScriptRuntime.GetEngine("langName") is cached, so the app will only incur a performance hit (because of the language's assemblies JITing) on the first request. However, if you want to keep some state around, let's say by defining some functions or importing a library for your script code to use, then you'll want to at least keep track of a ScriptScope, and then you might as well keep track of a ScriptEngine as well. You can store those anywhere you'd normally store things that need to persist between requests.
