publishing

Hi..

Just wondering is there any drawbacks to publishing a ASP .NET web application by copying all the files in it? (That means all the .cs, .csproj files will be included in the published folder)

So far I can think that the published folder's total size may become a little bigger (but that a negligible issue for me).
