/O1 /O2
These options select a predefined set of options that affect the size and speed of files as follows:
| Option | Equivalent to | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| /O1 (Minimize Size) | /Og /Os /Oy /Ob2 /Gs /GF /Gy | Creates the smallest code in the majority of cases. |
| /O2 (Maximize Speed) | /Og /Oi /Ot /Oy /Ob2 /Gs /GF /Gy | Creates the fastest code in the majority of cases. (Default setting for release builds) |

You can use other options to improve the size or speed of many applications (for example, the /G5 option to generate code optimized for the Pentium processor).
These options imply the use of the Frame-Pointer Omission (/Oy) option.
