If you could actually replace the DLL, it means it was not loaded by the worker process at the time (or else, the .dll file would be locked). Seeing as it hasn’t been used yet, the worker process will not restart – it will just load the new .dll file if/when it’s needed.
However, I do not recommend “warm” upgrades like these since it leaves you in an undetermined state.
