Applicatio​n Builder Performanc​e?

Question

Hello all.
Can anyone tell me if putting your application through the Application
Builder has a real improvment on performance. Or does it just cut the
size of the exe. down?
Regards,
Steve Drake

There will be some performance improvement due to the fact that debugging
information is turned off on your VIs. You can and may have already done
this in the regular VI Setup dialog, but if not, the app builder does it
for you. The second speed benefit will be that it loads more quickly since
the files are smaller and there is less stuff in the file that isn't loaded
to disrupt the file cache.
The first speed benefit is measurable, but depending on how many subVI calls
are made in your executable, it will probably be pretty small, and
again, you
can do the same thing in the development envi
ronment.
