More proof that assert checking _is_ expensive. I wonder how much compile time can be blamed overall on release checking (i.e. checking disabled vs. release checking). Have you ever compared e.g. build times of cc1-i files or a linux kernel with a non-checking compiler vs. a release-checking compiler? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34683
