The DataPower products work this way.  XSLT, XSD, WSDL, XACML, etc., files 
are compiled to object code the first time they're used (or you can 
pre-load the object cache). Then when actually "used" the object code is 
executed directly by the CPU(s).

I don't have any comparisons -- we've always done it this way -- but we're 
pretty sure it's one of the reasons why DataPower has been so fast.
