I’d assume it’s best to drill your holes before you anneal? Since the stiffer the part is the more likely it is to crack? Can’t find solid answer anywhere.

If you absolutely must drill into the material to enlarge something, I would do it pre-anneal. The annealing process changes the structural rigidity and properties of the material. Any surface treatment that needs to be done (besides sanding) should be done before annealing.
annealing can cause dimensional changes. I dont see any reason to intentionally drill pre anneal
