Hi all, the PHP for Windows team is considering to ship all PHP snapshot builds[1] as debug builds in the future (earliest at the end of March); currently these are release builds. The reason for this change is that debug builds obviously have better debugging support (including but not limited to WER[2]), and also execute assertions and enable the basic leak checking of Zend Memory Manager. Of course, the debug builds would be not as performant, and would be larger in size, but that does not appear to be an issue for snapshot build= s. Thoughts?
