What you say is correct, collecting a compilation unit is very
infrequent now. But code could decide to native compile functions each
time a performance critical operation has to be done, real world code
does that already relying on the byte-compiler.
I think to start with doing the clean-up when Emacs is closing is
sufficient, we can always add the timer in case we feel the need.
Thanks
