   I don't observe this in tests.

   PS 363> jython -V
   Jython 2.7.4
   PS 363> cat filename.py
   print __file__
   PS 363> jython filename.py
   filename.py
   PS 363> jython filename.py
   filename.py
   

   If you import a module, then yes it makes a compiled file and reads it the second time, but so does CPython.

   PS 363> jython -c"import filename"
   filename.py
   PS 363> jython -c"import filename"
   filename$py.class
   PS 363> python -c"import filename"
   filename.py
   PS 363> python -c"import filename"
   filename.pyc
   

   It may have changed since 2.7.2. We're always fixing things. :)

   Sorry, you're absolutely right, I was talking about an imported module.

   I helped myself by disabling the generation of bytecode.
   Is there a significant difference in execution time using bytecode or not?

   I don't have any figures, and only the obvious to point out, that it does the compilation again.
