Are Dynamically Compiled Assemblies for .ASPX files in Server Memory?

I've read that dynamically compiled assemblies and other resources for .aspx pages are stored in:

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\[VERSION]\Temporary ASP.NET Files

or 

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\[VERSION]\Temporary ASP.NET Files

I am unable to find any files there other than one hash directory and 1 .web file. I can view the pages, however. When I explicitly dump the files to a directory via the web.config:

<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" tempDirectory="c:\temp\" />

only then do I see the files (.dll's, .cmdline's, .compiled, etc).

So my question is, where are the files if I don't have that line in my web.config? Are they stored in memory after they've been dynamically compiled or compiled before deploying?

Thanks!

Path to one of generated assemblies can be like that C:\Users\{User_Name}\AppData\Local\Temp\Temporary ASP.NET Files\root\5fba2019\f07d83d6\assembly\dl3\58fc15e5\135e9dc1_40b4cc01\WebApplication1.DLL

So, all autogenerated files storing here C:\Users\{User_Name}\AppData\Local\Temp\Temporary ASP.NET Files\
