No, people are supposed to use ReleaseSafe, especially "in production". You can still disable runtime checks in specific execution paths.

ReleaseFast is for applications where there are no disastrous consequences to a bug in the code, like videogames.

Having your account hacked is a disastrous consequence though. And it's likely that the need of performance is not on the CPU side of things but on the GPU so ReleaseSafe should be good enough.

Oh! I didn't know that. In that case, sorry for mischaracterization.
