When you call RazorEngine.Razor.Compile(), where is the compiled template stored?

Is it available after the programs been restarted? If there is a memory shortage, will it be dumped?

I am using RazorEngine in an ASP.NET (MVC) project. Will the precompiled templates be available after the application restarts?

Would it make more sense for me to store them in the HttpContext.Cache?
If I did, then would it make more sense to use a different function (other than Compile) that bypasses the internal cache? Is there a way to execute an ITemplate and just pass it a model?

Does RazorEngine.Razor.Parse() do any caching? Or is the template recompiled each time?

    Currently, after the RazorEngine compiles the templates, they are loaded into memory. These assemblies persist in memory only and do not continue beyond the lifetime of the application.

    I am considering adding in support for compiling these assemblies to files, but that’ll be a future version.

    If you call Razor.Parse and pass in a name for the template, it will attempt to

    1. Check the cache of in-memory assemblies for an assembly with the same name.
    2. Invalid the cache of the content of the template has changed.
    3. Cache the newly compiled template.
