Debug vs release build

Hi Krijn,

Actually our Release projects do have "Optimize code" checked.  But regardless, the setting you mentioned only affects debugging performance, not execution performance. You can read more here.

I still have .NET 3.5 assemblies.

I believe that the setting 'DisableOptimizations' meens that "Optimize code" is not checked. Therefore the setting 'IsJITOptimizerDisabled' is true. 

'IsJITOptimizerDisabled' : 'true if the runtime optimizer is disabled; otherwise, false.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.diagnostics.debuggableattribute.isjitoptimizerdisabled(v=vs.90).aspx

 A release build assembly (System.dll for example) has following debug attributes (use reflector):

[assembly: Debuggable(DebuggableAttribute.DebuggingModes.IgnoreSymbolStoreSequencePoints)]

(This is not the same as actipro assemblies)

Perhaps this is because I am using an old version 9.1.515 ?

Hi Krijn,

That attribute is certainly not present in the current release versions. We switch from Dotfuscator to Smart Assembly last year and I believe that Dotfuscator may have been adding that option. In any event, the current releases are not affected.
