/Ox (Full Optimization)

The /Ox compiler option produces code that favors execution speed over smaller size.

/Ox

Remarks

Specifying the /Ox compiler option is the same as using the following options:

/Ox is mutually exclusive from:

The /Ox compiler option also enables the Named Return Value optimization, which eliminates the copy constructor and destructor of a stack based return value. For more information, see /O1, /O2 (Minimize Size, Maximize Speed).

You can cancel out the /Ox compiler option if you specify /Oxs, which combines the /Ox compiler option with /Os (Favor Small Code). The combined options favor smaller code size.

In general, specify /O2 (Maximize Speed) instead of /Ox, and /O1 (Minimize Size) instead of /Oxs.
