/optimize (Enable/Disable Optimizations) (C# Compiler Options)
Visual Studio 2005
The /optimize option enables or disables optimizations performed by the compiler to make your output file smaller, faster, and more efficient.
/optimize[+ | <U>-</U>]
/optimize also tells the common language runtime to optimize code at runtime.
By default, optimizations are disabled. Specify /optimize+ to enable optimizations.
When building a module to be used by an assembly, use the same /optimize settings as those of the assembly.
/o is the short form of /optimize.
It is possible to combine the /optimize and /debug options.
