+# Using PrecompileTools faster model runs
+
+PrecompileTools.jl enables developers to force the Julia compiler to save more code to disk, preventing re-compilation in the future.
+
+For CalibrateAtmos, this is useful under certain conditions:
+1. The atmosphere model configuration is set and will not change often. 
+2. The model runtime is short compared to the compile time.
+
+For point 1 above, this is because the model configuration specifies things like the floating-point type and callbacks, which affect the MethodInstances that get precompiled. Generically precompiling ClimaAtmos would take much too long to be useful.
+
+For point 2, if the model runtime is an order of magnitude or more than the compilation time, any benefit from reduced compilation time will be trivial.
+
+# How do I precompile my configuration?
+The easiest way is by copying and pasting the code snippet below into `src/CalibrateAtmos.jl` and replacing the `job_id` with your experiment ID.
+This will precompile the model step and all callbacks for the given configuration.
+```julia
+using PrecompileTools
+import SciMLBase
+import ClimaAtmos as CA
+import YAML
+
+@setup_workload begin
+    output = joinpath("precompilation")
+    job_id = "your configuration"
+    config_file = joinpath("experiments", job_id, "atmos_config.yml")
+    config_dict = YAML.load_file(config_file)
+    config_dict["output_dir"] = output
+    @compile_workload begin
+        initialize(job_id)
+        config = CA.AtmosConfig(config_dict)
+        simulation = CA.get_simulation(config)
+        (; integrator) = simulation
+        SciMLBase.step!(integrator)
+        CA.call_all_callbacks!(integrator)
+    end
+end
+```
