JSP seems to be compiled externally. Why?

I was deploying a new appliation to Glassfish this morning with Dinesh,
and we noticed that it seems to be compiling JSPs by launching an
external javac (more over, it seems to be doing so for each tag file.)

This made it unbearably slow to see the web pages. Why is it doing so?
Can't we just load javac in the AppServer JVM?
