The DGEE (and probably other containers) needs to be able to load assemblies from memory and not just from disk.
This is required to support:
1. local caching of webservices (important for (2) )
2. Retrieval of webservice code dynamically from remote systems and then execute (also ties in with 1.)

In the case of the DGEE we have the webservice that is to be executed in memory prior to building an ILProcess to execute it. The DGEE currently does an assembly.Load to get the webservice from disk even though we have a memory copy. Reflection is used to locate the webservice method once the assembly has been loaded.

Footnote:
The loaded assembly may require other 'libraries' that could conceivably be stored along with the webservice.dll, all stored on a remote system. If this were to be the case, then the libs would also have to be loaded from memory.... just thinking further ahead.
