Hot A/C compressor bracket

While normal underhood temperatures can achieve pretty high levels, I just happened to notice today after a drive the A/C compressor bracket and surrouding metal was too hot to touch for more than a second. This is right by the mount for the DIS module. A/C was not running. Is this a normal occurance in others experience?
 
Yes, heat from the engine block which the bracket is bolted to is easily tranfered to the Aluminum bracket. Perfectly normal.
