Possible to turn off App_Code auto-compile?

Working with Visual Studio (I'm using 2008) I have started to notice that when you save a file in the /App_Code folder, the program will 开发者_开发问答hang for a bit before returning control. After a bit of research, I have learned that there's an auto-compile feature at work, which I assume is what is slowing down my system.

So the question is this: Is it possible to turn off the automatic compiling of files in the /App_Code folder? Or, even better, is there a way to reduce the time that it takes, or make it work a little more smoothly in the background? Any thoughts/ideas are appreciated!

Sorry i don't know of any way of switching off compiling the app_code folder. If its an issue I would try to keep the amount of files in this directory down to a min or even move them out to a seperate library.
