Hi Pelle,
I am writting a program where speed is a priority. I have two questions, as the answers are not in the documentation:
- If I put 'try' and 'except' in my code, does the code inside suffer a speed penalty?
- When compile and link with debug options on, does it affect to speed of execution?
And talking of another think, if you have read my entry in the 'bug report' forum, you will see a problem. I have reproducced the code in a very small program. If you are interesting I can prepare a clean example and send you the problem an the description. if you are interesting let me know and I will send you by private message.
Regards, and thx.

All of the answers are in the debugger. Run to a breakpoint placed near the code in question, right click, and show assembly. You'll see the instructions for try except and any added code due to debug.

Usually yes. Less so on X64 and ARM, more so on X86.

Not much, if you keep optimizations on (but then again, debug builds are for catching bugs and not necessarily producing the fastest executables).

Yes, a small example would be helpful. Please mail me...
