We are migrating from VC++ 6 to VC++ 2003. It is a plain, unmanaged application with both C and C++ source. When running the debug build, even outside the debugger, the memory allocation/deallocation performance appears to be orders of magnitude slower than in VC++ 6. The release build runs fine - no performance problems.
We've rewritten some of the code to do fewer memory allocations/deallocations and that has helped those pieces. However, the application is about 400K lines of code, so we'd obviously prefer not to have to reengineer the entire codebase.
Are there any compiler switches or macro definitions that will speed up the debug memory manager? Basically, what we want is the same performance that we were able to get when building with VC++ 6.

First of all what is the problem if the debug version runs slower than the release version, as the release version is the one that going to be shipped. Send the compiler options used for the debug build so that one can see what really is the compiler option that causes the program to run slowly.

My server app is transformed from environment of UNIX to Windows. Its
ran on the Apache Windows Server. The code is compiled pass by MSVC6
and ran well. but it has more memory leak.
when I am debugging the code with windbg, insertting mang break, and
step by step running code, the app do not appare memory leak at all. I
am confused.
if the app run without debugging, then the memory would increse by
watching task manager.

All the documentation says that leaving an ASP.NET application in debug
mode has a big performance hit. I can't detect any difference between
debug and non-debug modes. Am I missing something or is the
documentation wrong?
I've been load testing an ASP.NET website (built in VS.NET 2003 in C#).
I've used the ACT to generate heavy loads over several minutes. Debug
or no debug produces almost identical performance results.

Dear all,
I have following problem. I created a static libruary (mylib.lib).
I compiled it with Multithreaded DLL runtime in release mode. Now I want to

runtime ).
But at link time following warning is shown and prog crashes. Do I have to

Hi All,
We meet an evil condition for our project. Our project has 3 layers.
A C# layer to do some business logic, and Managed C++ layer translate
managed values to native ones or vice verse.(vs2005, /clr:oldSyntax) .
UI layer are written in native C++.
Currently, we meet a random crash bug in release build. It is ok in
debug build. If we replace the managed c++ dll with the debug one, it
works also. So we think there must be...

Hi,
Up until now I have been shipping debug builds of my asp.net
application and including the pdb files too, even into production
systems, primarily because it gives us proper stack traces with line
numbers in the event of an exception. I haven't been aware of any
stability, memory or performance problems with the application, even
for sites that have been running 24/7 for months with worker process
recycling disabled.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
