#125008 - against NASA rules, sorry Andy posted before
Responding to: ???'s previous message
I always keep a debug version of the compiled source where all the optimizations have been turned off
In that scenario, you can not "fly what you test"

[edit] Sorry Andy, I posted before I came to your post.

the argument FOR optimizing and, still, following the NASA rule is valid if you have a "testing department" with a huge budget. However, I (with the testing budget available) do quite a bit of testing by poking values in the ICE. So, my "tested" code (no code is EVER fully tested) is the non-optimized.

succesful testing does not show the abscence of bugs, it only show the abscence of KNOWN bugs
