[edk2] [PATCH 0/1] BaseTools/Conf: Add /Gw optimisation option for VS2017 IA32 and X64

Posted by Pete Batard 5 years, 12 months ago

It looks like we forgot to carry over the /Gw optimisation option when adding
VS2017 support for IA32 and X64, whereas it is present in VS2015 and earlier.

Binaries without /Gw can be almost twice as large as when the option is used:

Note that ARM and ARM64 are unaffected, as they already have the flag.
