Fields

Name	Value	Description
Debug	0	Disables all optimizations and instruments the generated code to improve debugging experience. The compiler prefers debuggability over performance. Do not use for code running in a production environment. JIT optimizations are disabled via assembly level attribute (DebuggableAttribute). Edit and Continue is enabled. Slots for local variables are not reused, lifetime of local variables is extended to make the values available during debugging. Corresponds to command line argument /optimize-.
Release	1	Enables all optimizations, debugging experience might be degraded. The compiler prefers performance over debuggability. Use for code running in a production environment. JIT optimizations are enabled via assembly level attribute (DebuggableAttribute). Edit and Continue is disabled. Sequence points may be optimized away. As a result it might not be possible to place or hit a breakpoint. User-defined locals might be optimized away. They might not be available while debugging. Corresponds to command line argument /optimize+.
