No, even small files. You must have issues with your setup. Are you sure your compiler is not built in debug mode?

How would I check that? I installed it through homebrew via https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/... which doesn't seem to mention debug mode anywhere?

Run `nim -v`, if it's not in debug mode you should see "active boot switches: -d:release".

Looks like it isn't in debug mode after all.
