A similar question was asked a while ago in this thread: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/Forums/Thread/157773/difference-between-debug-write-and-trace-write-in-asp-ne.aspx Debug mode does not optimize the intermediate language (IL) produced by the compiler and produces additional data for debugging purposes. In contrast release mode does optimize the IL and doesn't produce data for debugging purposes (unless the Trace class is used). Consequently a release build should be somewhat faster than a debug build.
