+Compilation units
+=================
+
+When you run mypyc to compile a set of modules, these modules form a
+*compilation unit*. Mypyc will use early binding for references within
+the compilation unit.
+
+If you run mypyc multiple times to compile multiple sets of modules,
+each invocation will result in a new compilation unit. References
+between separate compilation units will fall back to late binding,
+i.e. looking up names using Python namespace dictionaries. Also, all
+calls will use the slower Python calling convention, where arguments
+and the return value will be boxed (and potentially unboxed again in
+the called function).
+
+For maximal performance, minimize interactions across compilation
+units. The simplest way to achieve this is to compile your entire
+program as a single compilation unit.
