I'm looking into writing an ION script web front-end for a program I've
developed which currently uses widgets and the virtual machine. The
program is an interactive image viewer for an an image database on the
server side, and depends on quite a lot of IDL code. As far as I can
see, it looks to me like each time you make a page request, ION script
starts up, compiles all the necessary IDL code, runs the script, and
exits. This means that for every interaction, all my IDL libraries need
to be compiled. Is this really so? Is there any way to avoid that?

FWIW, I've done the same with Java.
