I've come to learn that the problem is not Resin.  As you've noted, it's groovyc.  I've not considered your suggestion before but I will give it a try.  Your blog post is quite interesting.  Not sure what to make of this whole thing and what it really says about groovy's use out said of grails.  It sucks to have to dig this deep just to use Groovy in a covenient way.  

Thanks for the help.

Hi,
What we do is to use the Groovy scripts through the Java Scripting API
during development and then compile them into class, if desired, for
production. Accessing Groovy scripts is not too slow, after the first
access, if you are careful not to throw the ScriptingEngine object after
each access, as creating them is the most expensive operation.

I did some experiments with it not that long ago:

So we opted for scripting during development, as even though you might
get groovyc compilation to work, I'm not sure why but Hot Swapping does
not seem to work with groovyc generated classes and each time you make a
change, the context is restarted and it can become quite a pain.

S!
