Thanks for your interest in our project, Tim. Currently no, you cannot 
compile a lot of files simultaneously, however a bash script is a viable 
option. As of yet, no, you cannot (and more than likely should not) 
compile web-based applications. If you want to protect your source, 
there are several php encrpytion applications, both commercial and free. 
The commercial way would be to purchase the zendEncoder from Zend.com, 
but if you don't have any money there are several php extensions which 
will encode/decode php files.
