[Digikam-devel] Memcheck - debugfull or release compile?

Hi,
for callgrind, using an release build (or an optimized debug build) is the
better choice, since you want to check performance and it doesn't make sense
to run the tool on not optimized code.
But what about memcheck? I usually use memcheck with an optimized build, since
it is faster. But it also finds less errors, errors that might have been
"optimized away" :-)
The question is, are these optimizations the same for every platform? Or is it
better to run memcheck on a debugfull build instead, to catch all nasty
errors?
