This parameter specifies a default optimization level for the initial compilation of a grammar. It is only used when the grammar specifies no optimization level (via swirec_optimization).
In general, higher values mean more optimization, and lower values mean less. (However, in some instances, a value of 9 might optimize better than 11.) See swirec_optimization for a more detailed explanation.
Regardless of the setting of this parameter and the initial optimization level that it defines, the Recognizer automatically recompile the grammar with a higher optimization level (swirec_full_optimization) if it is frequently used (swirec_hits_before_full_optimize).
