We have a large C++ application, which sometimes we need to run as a debug build in order to investigate bugs. The debug build is much much slower than the release build, to the point of being almost unusable.
What tricks are available for making MSVC Debug builds execute faster without sacrificing too much on the debugability?
Use
#pragma optimize("", off)at the top of selected files that you want to debug in release. This gives better stack trace/variable view.Works well if it’s only a few files you need to chase the bug in.
