(Whiteboard: [19990901] developer regression. troy, is it fixed?)

[Cc'ing Harish on this on so I have a witness]

Rick, because of this blunder any future claims you make that the parser (or any
future piece of code you write) performs great and isn't a bottleneck will fall
on deaf ears

While running Quantify on an optimized build with symbols and loading the above
URL I noticed that we were spending .10% of the time (that's the 9th highest
number with malloc being .30%) in "osstream::<<"

Strange, I thought. As I look into it all the calls are coming from the parser.
Things like CAttributeToken::DebugDumpSource(). I thought to myself, "Harish is
a sensible fellow surely he wouldn't make debug calls in an optimized build".

Then I narrow it down to code inside of a "#ifdef RICKG_DEBUG". "Why is that
defined for an optimized build?" I ask myself.

So I grep the source files and sure enough near the top of CNavDTD.cpp is:

#define RICKG_DEBUG
#ifdef  RICKG_DEBUG
#include  <fstream.h>
#endif

Needles to say you need to fix this and fix it quickly...

Stupidity on my part for leaving in debug flags.

Fixed by eliminating #defines that enabled debug code.
