Do you recommend enabling code analysis for C / C ++ on the assembly?

Question

I am using Visual Studio 2010, and in my C ++ / CLI project there are two code analysis options:

• Enable build code analysis
• Enable code analysis for C / C ++ during assembly

My question is about the second setting.

I turned it on, and it takes a long time to complete it, and it does not find much.

Do you recommend enabling this feature? Why?

What you could do additionally is to perform static code analysis on all the files that were bound to your version control system. For instance. in Subversion you can do this in trigger-trigger.
