Actually not really. The IDE will tell you where the line crashes, and doesn't run with any optimizations so overflows and such will still show up. I've never had the IDE run fine and the compiled not, myself. In fact, only time I ever even run compiled is if I don't plan on altering the client or server any time soon.
