>>The application suffers from a lot of the dreaded 'C0005' errors. Whether that's a result of instantiating uncompiled classes is another story. Insofar as performance tests are concerned, both compiled and uncompiled classes run at the same speed, but the time to instantiate uncompiled libraries seems to take longer. If you could explain why this is so, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

I completely forgot that class libraries are compile whether they are in a exe or app. Our network environment is not the best, so it makes sence that we compile the classes into the exe to reduce disk I/O. It makes a huge difference.
