global.asa and its engine ?

[David Morgan]

When IIS detects that the datetime stamp on a global.asa file has changed,
it restarts the web application (website to which the global.asa pertains).

When a global.asa is changed does its engine need to restart or is it
restarting itself or so? I mean for example there is a web site which
contains asp pages and of course its global.asa file I wonder if there is an
engine each websites, does need the site's engine restart in that case or It
can understand something has been changed and it rebuilds or restarts its
engine. I guess not but one of my coworker says it's restarting the engine

Thank you.
