I probably should fine-tune this question by a more specific example:

My daemon config of emacs uses ~/.emacs.d/init_term.el is the init file. 
Which in turn loads several byte-compiled elisp files via 'require

Suppose that I byte compile one of those files via my gui instance of 
emacs, currently running as non-daemon. If I apply load-file to 
~/.emacs.d/init_term.el, should I not expect those dependent elisp files 
to be sourced as well? I might assume so, but since I am new to using 
daemon mode, I would want to insure that is the case.
