Does Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition include the "optimizing compiler"

Yes, Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition includes the same core optimizing compiler
that will be included with all other Visual Studio 2005 editions. It should be
noted that some new expanded optimization features, including Profile Guided
Optimizations, will be available only in the Professional and above editions of
Visual Studio 2005.
