I'm editing .py files and the respective .class files aren't getting recompiled, even after completely restarting the JVM.

Sep 13 16:48 model_endpoint$py.class
Sep 16 13:04 model_endpoint.py

I think I've traced this down to core/imp.java:readCode. When called with testing=false, this won't check the mtime. It must be getting called via imp.java:loadFromCompiled because that's the only place I see that passed testing=false.

If checking the file timestamps every time is a performance concern, then I'd expect some kind of development mode where we can have a setting to enable checking and recompilation.

Since I haven't seen this reported elsewhere -- are you sure Jython is loading *that* model_endpoint$py.class file and not a different copy? You can confirm that via:

>> import model_endpoint; print model_endpoint.__file__

I guess we should close this
