It can be either. Compiled code generally offers greater performance while something 
that
has to be accepted by an interpreter will be more robust, provided the interpreter is
solid. When it comes to compiled code you can either have a "built in" compiler or you 
can
compile you code yourself and present the executable to the server one way or another 
(like
UDF's).
