Note that web2py models, controllers, and views are executed by the framework on every request -- therefore, any changes to those files are reflected immediately upon the next request. Modules, however, are imported -- in Python, once a module is imported, changes to the module file are not reflected in the running code unless you re-start the interpreter or explicitly reload the module (and there are some limitations to reloading). As lyn2py has pointed out, at least in development, you can use the track_changes functionality to automatically reload modules whenever changes are made. Note, track_changes applies to the entire web2py installation (i.e., all apps served by the installation).
