77-77: Verify the intention behind changing SAMRAI build type to DebugThe build type for SAMRAI has been changed from RelWithDebInfo to Debug. This change might have the following implications:
- Slower performance due to reduced optimizations.
- Larger binary size.
- More detailed debugging information, which might not be necessary for CI builds.
Could you please clarify the reasoning behind this change? If the goal is to catch more issues during CI, consider using RelWithDebInfo instead, as it provides a balance between performance and debugging capabilities.
✅ Verification successful
SAMRAI build type is consistently set to Debug across the project.

💡 Codebase verification
Inconsistent Optimization Levels Detected
The main project uses -O3 optimization, while res/cmake/coverage.cmake employs -O0. This mismatch can lead to:
- Performance Discrepancies: Different optimization levels may cause inconsistent behavior and performance issues.
- Debugging Challenges: Optimized code (
-O3) can interfere with debugging processes compared to unoptimized builds (-O0).
Recommendations:
- Align Optimization Flags: Use a consistent optimization level across all CMake configurations, such as
RelWithDebInfo, to balance performance and debuggability. - Review CMake Files: Ensure all CMake files set compatible
CMAKE_CXX_FLAGSto maintain uniform behavior.
🔗 Analysis chain
Resolve inconsistency between Debug build and -O3 optimization
There's an inconsistency in the optimization levels:
- SAMRAI is built with Debug configuration (typically -O0 or -Og).
- The main project uses -O3 optimization.
This mix of optimization levels could lead to:
- Inconsistent performance characteristics.
- Potential issues when debugging, as optimized code might not match source code exactly.
Consider the following options:
- If performance is critical, use RelWithDebInfo for both SAMRAI and the main project.
- If debugging is the priority, remove the -O3 flag and use Debug consistently.
- If you need both performance and debugging capabilities, consider using RelWithDebInfo with -g flag for both.
Please clarify the intended behavior and adjust the configuration accordingly.
