Not really; pyc file generation is "optional". Its a performance
enhancement, but if it doesn't work, there's no problem.

No pyc files indicates to me that the web process doesn't have *write*
access to this directory, which is actually entirely fine and dandy. I'd
just pre-compile them all first, because otherwise Python has to read
the original source, parse and build up bytecode for each file every
request.

I'd "python -m compileall -f ." whenever you edit a file and before testing.
