  1. I am trying to cut down on memory usage in my RT application, and one of the methods I am exploring is replacing some of the larger subVIs with VI Server Call by Reference nodes. My problem is, I want to be able to debug the VIs in question when running in development mode, so I'd like to be able to switch between calling by reference (when compiled as an executable) and including as a subVI (when running in development mode). I know I could use conditional disable structures to select the calling method, but that would require me to change the conditional disable symbol(s) each time I want to build the executable or run in development mode. Is there any way to set a conditional disable symbol based on the application type, or set the symbol from within the build specification? Or is there another (better) way to do it besides conditional disable? I realize I could just throw an App.Kind property node on the block diagram with a case structure containing the subvi for "development mode" and the Call by Reference node for "Run-Time Engine", but my understanding is that the subvi will still be loaded into memory when the calling VI is called (by virtue of placing it in the block diagram), even if that case is never executed. Please feel free to enlighten me if I am incorrect about this!
