Well, that will give you the fastest possible code.  But there is no 
guarantee that small mistakes won't blow up in your face.  It could be 
hidden behind another compiler switch (-release is really a terrible name, 
maybe -livefastdieyoung ?  -noparachute 
? -drinkthemysteyliquidreadthelabellater ?) but chances are it will be 
abused no matter what.
