optimizations available.
- ``optimize=size`` *(default when targeting the Web platform)*: Favors small
binaries at the cost of slower execution speed.
- ``optimize=size_extra``: Favors even smaller binaries, at the cost of even
slower execution speed compared to ``optimize=size``.
- ``optimize=debug``: Only enables optimizations that do not impact debugging in
any way. This results in faster binaries than ``optimize=none``, but slower
binaries than ``optimize=speed_trace``.
