The query was ambiguous, but seemed to be either a question about
importance of skills for selling one's services or importance of
features within a development tool suite. I took it as the latter.

The latter is what I was trying to convey but obviously that wasn't as
clear as I first thought (it never is).

The responses have been fantastic and I have to thank everyone for
their help, I guess I'll provide some context for the question now.
I'm a developer for an embedded tools company (no need for name
dropping) and will soon be focussing on improving our compilers to
support higher level debugging features. As it has been mentioned some
optimisations can make this quite difficult and whilst I will be
aiming to make high level debugging as accurate and complete as
possible I was interested in where peoples preferences are.

Thanks again, Ryan.

Test
Debug
Then optimise
Test again.

Note some safety critical systems do not permit optimisations.
