WHAT IS DIFFERENT BETWEN RELEASE MODE & DEBUGGING MODE
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / gautam
debug mode built always comes up with debug info and it's
for diagnostic purpose only. so size will be bigger and you
can debug it with the help of visual studio and with some
diagnostic apis/macros.
once you are sure there is nothing to debug, need to make a
final built (release mode). it will remove debug info,
strip off debug/diagnostic specific calls from your code.
so, size will be small, optimized, faster(hopefully) and
ready to ship.

Answer / sachin mahajan
Size of exe is more in Debug than in release and hence
release is faster.
Debug contains debugging symbols information and
Release does not have.
