+        aliases: [ "working-dir" ]

+        choices: [ "yes", "no" ]

+        description:
+            - Optimize autoloader during autoloader dump ( see --optimize-autoloader ). Convert PSR-0/4 autoloading to classmap to get a faster autoloader. This is recommended especially for production, but can take a bit of time to run so it is currently not done by default.
+        required: false
+        default: "yes"
+        choices: [ "yes", "no" ]
+        aliases: [ "optimize-autoloader" ]
+requirements:
