I once saw someone create the longest python file they could to see how long generating pyc files takes, and it is very very quick indeed. A human could not notice the delay even for the largest of projects.

Uhm yes it makes sense also to just remove all of them, I don't know why 
it was done like this but
probably for "performance" reasons.

I will try both ways, but I would definitively avoid the shell 
scripting, because it's mainly windows
but it has to be multi-platform..
