   best setup for VisC 7.1
  Hi,I was just looking through the settings for the compiler in MSVC 7.1 and Im a bit hopeless when it comes to configuring the thing. I mean, if you want the fastest performance build is it really as easy as selecting Favor Fast Code and Full Optimization etc etc.Or do some of these conflict and there is a better way?any good links for stuff like this would be appreciated.   
  You'll want to play around with the compiler settings to find out what works best for your project.A few guidelines to get started:(1) "Favor Fast Code" isn't always the best optimization choice.Depending on the size of your app the "Favor Small Code" optionmay actually produce better results by reducing the number of page faults.(2) Turn inline expansion to "Any Suitable".(3) Under "Code Generation", set "Enable Enhanced Instruction Set" to SIMD2.(4) Under "Code Generation", disable "Buffer Security Check"Here's a link to MSDN that explains the various compiler options for VC++.;  cheers
