I think MSC10 is better on speed optimization, not size.
But I think also that speed gain is not so important, with modern machines, at least if you don't code a game or process-intensive applications. Mine is, but I prefere to optimize my code alone than leave it to compliler.

I do have many problems with my customers of dumb antivirus reporting my code as suspect or, whorse, as a trojan.
I think that antivirus producers should be sued because of this. They made me loose a couple of customers with their dumb behaviour.
I read up a bit on the topic, and the conclusion is that if you sign the executable (after cryping it) with a valid code certificate then the number of false positives will greatly reduce.
The Microsoft signtool is already included with the compiler.
The certificate costs about 180 euros a year.

Thank you, but I absolutely refuse to pay money because of other people's mistakes.
180 Euro for a certificate to be able to sell MY application because of bullshit antivirus ? NEVER.
