Checked build drivers work fine with the free build OS. As far a shipping
such a driver, some companies do just that, typically with a registry
setting to control debug printing.

Hi,
I know, to help debugging, its required to have the windows checked build
and with checked build driver (driver under development). But what happens
if checked build driver is loaded and used with free build os ? (XP SP2).
As far as I know, the checked build driver
1. Does not have optimization enabled
2. Lots of DbgPrint
3. The size of the binary is huge (because of symbols and etc).
3. The driver will be slow.
Are there anything more to add to the above list ? If I manage to remove
all the prints and if the driver is meeting the performance criterion, is
it advisable to deploy the checked build driver with free build OS ?
Regards
Esha
