Some previous developers put some assemblies that were built in debug mode into production. Is it worth recompiling them in release mode and redeploying them? If there’s just a 1-2% performance increase, I’d probably just leave them there. On the other hand, a 10-20% increase might change my mind.

I had this same question about a year ago because we were having major performance issues in production. As it was explained to me from MS Premier support the debug build versions include hooks for debugging which can result in about 1 – 10 % increase in memory consumption depending upon what the application does.
If you are not having problems then leave them alone, but if you are having problems with memory consumption then go ahead and recompile / deploy.
