Re^4: Optimize debugging subs by danb (Friar) on Apr 05, 2006 at 06:10 UTC
Good point; what about this? Lots debug() calls inside a long-running loop, inside many very frequently called subs, running in a virtual server program (with access to only 10% of the CPU), running on a commodity server (Pentium-III 1.3 Ghz), being accessed by many simultaneous clients. That's a lot different than the Benchmark I just ran on a Athlon64 X2 2.4ghz. Besides, what about the enjoyment of knowing that there is no debugging code in your program? --Dan	[reply]

Besides, what about the enjoyment of knowing that there is no* debugging code in your program?* Enjoyment? In practice, I've found debug vs production optimizations a source of headaches. Also, I've found the production version is not sufficiently tested. People assume the production version will work because the debug version does.	[reply]
