Equivalence to Python -O flag ?

Hi, is there in Sage that's equivalent to running python with the flag -O, i.e., python -O ? This sets the __debug__ variable to 1 and remove all assertion code. I've tried sage -O and also look at sage -h but can't seem to find something like that.
Thanks,

Sage console is based on Ipython. Does Ipython have such option?

It seems that the answer is no. But you can do the following

$ sage -sh
(sage-sh)$ python -O
Python 2.7.10 (default, Dec 23 2015, 08:49:15) 
[GCC 4.9.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from sage.all import *     # long time
>>> R = PolynomialRing(ZZ, 'x')
>>> x = R.gen()
>>> (x**2 + 2*x + 1).factor()
(x + 1)^2

Be careful that Sage uses a preparser that is different from Python...

It seems doable as follows: from a terminal, type:

sage -sh

Then, from that shell, type:

python -O $(which sage-ipython)

Wait a bit, and it seems that you have a true Sage (with a preparser and so on), which understood the -O option of python:

sage: 2^2
4
sage: assert(2<1)
<nothing>
