While performance branch has the lastest updates and tweaks only, profiling branch comes with an additional '''debug layer''' which will allow for more detailed debugging. This debug layer will however, potentially reduce the performance of this branch.  
The profiling branch comes with two different binaries (.exe files). The differences are shown in the table below.
