Is that correct Jim?
No I don't think so. Unless NI made some significant changes in LabVIEW 7.0. building an application is just about the same performance gain as disabling the debugging flag. I have older figures but this resulted in LabVIEW 5 and 6 in gains of a few % and is therefore bound to get almost lost in the noise of the measurement accuracy.
