The compile is converting the "text" based information into binary form which is 100 times faster for a computer to deal with. This then allows scripts to work and to be able to quickly access Picks that are in memory.
In short it takes the text and makes it machine usable. Sense .user files can constantly be changed or new ones added it does this "each" time you start HL.
Hope that makes sense.
