<a class="header" href="ch14-01-release-profiles.html#customizing-builds-with-release-profiles" id="customizing-builds-with-release-profiles"><h2>Customizing Builds with Release Profiles</h2></a>
<p>In Rust, <em>release profiles</em> are predefined and customizable profiles with
different configurations that allow a programmer to have more control over
various options for compiling code. Each profile is configured independently of
the others.</p>
<p>Cargo has two main profiles: the <code>dev</code> profile Cargo uses when you run <code>cargo build</code> and the <code>release</code> profile Cargo uses when you run <code>cargo build --release</code>. The <code>dev</code> profile is defined with good defaults for developing, and
the <code>release</code> profile has good defaults for release builds.</p>
<p>These profile names might be familiar from the output of your builds, which
shows the profile used in the build:</p>
<pre><code class="language-text">$ cargo build
Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.0 secs
$ cargo build --release
Finished release [optimized] target(s) in 0.0 secs
</code></pre>
<p>The <code>dev</code> and <code>release</code> shown in this build output indicate that the compiler
is using different profiles.</p>
<p>Cargo has default settings for each of the profiles that apply when there
aren’t any <code>[profile.*]</code> sections in the project’s <em>Cargo.toml</em> file. By adding
<code>[profile.*]</code> sections for any profile we want to customize, we can override
any subset of the default settings. For example, here are the default values
for the <code>opt-level</code> setting for the <code>dev</code> and <code>release</code> profiles:</p>
<p><span class="filename">Filename: Cargo.toml</span></p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[profile.dev]
opt-level = 0
[profile.release]
opt-level = 3
</code></pre>
<p>The <code>opt-level</code> setting controls the number of optimizations Rust will apply to
your code with a range of zero to three. Applying more optimizations extends
compiling time, so if you’re in development and compiling your code often, you
want faster compiling even at the expense of the resulting code running slower.
That is the reason the default <code>opt-level</code> for <code>dev</code> is <code>0</code>. When you’re ready
to release your code, it’s best to spend more time compiling. You’ll only
compile in release mode once and run the compiled program many times, so
release mode trades longer compile time for code that runs faster. That is the
reason the default <code>opt-level</code> for the <code>release</code> profile is <code>3</code>.</p>
<p>We can override any default setting by adding a different value for it in
<em>Cargo.toml</em>. For example, if we want to use optimization level 1 in the
development profile, we can add these two lines to our project’s <em>Cargo.toml</em>
file:</p>
<p><span class="filename">Filename: Cargo.toml</span></p>
<pre><code class="language-toml">[profile.dev]
opt-level = 1
</code></pre>
<p>This code overrides the default setting of <code>0</code>. Now when we run <code>cargo</code>
<code>build</code>, Cargo will use the defaults for the <code>dev</code> profile plus our
customization to <code>opt-level</code>. Because we set <code>opt-level</code> to <code>1</code>, Cargo will
apply more optimizations than the default, but not as many as a release build.</p>
<p>For the full list of configuration options and defaults for each profile, see
<a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/">Cargo’s documentation</a>.</p>
