Hi, the LPC cortex series have a 50% smaller code when changing from debug to release mode. So the question is, how can you debug code that is larger than 50% of the flash size available? Are there any debug settings strategy or pragma's that will allow this?

Actually it does. Follow the link "Project vs per-file properties" at the end of Debugging of optimized code.

Thanks for that information. Can you explain how a single file can be optimized differently to the rest of the project, the documentation referenced does not explain this.

See the FAQ

You build some source files for Release, and others for Debug. You could build everything for release, but this will make it much harder to debug...
