[ros-dev] Re: [ros-svn] [ion] 14810: Change optimization settings for retail builds. Change to -Os for smaller executables which are not slower, and enable more advanced optimizations. funitatatime is already included by default in GCC 4.0. Strip debug info from retail builds, since we don't parse the symbols anyways. I hope these options don't break anything, they don't for me; Debugging is unaffected.
