Are you referring to a debug build?

No

What compiler?

"g++ (GCC) 4.2.1 (Debian 4.2.1-5)" The command I used was: g++ -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer x.cc I'm using Debian's "libboost-dev" package, version 1.34.1-2.

1.34 introduced a macro for tuning all the exceptions into asserts.

Hmmm I didn't explicitly define any macros, but what the compiled code contains seems to be asserts. Are asserts generally smaller/larger than throws? Thanks, -Miles -- Freedom's just another word, for nothing left to lose --Janis Joplin
