Does a Portlet JSP get complied into a servlet?

Hi

I am using the IBM JSP Server Portlet. I have a content management system that allows a content editor to change HTML content in the JSP. The updated JSP file is then deployed to a Network File System that is essentially mounted to the Portal Application server where the JSP Server portlet is installed. My question is, Does a portlet JSP get complied into a servlet every time a new version of that JSP is deployed with it's content changed?

Thank you
