- Subject: Improving GDB startup time with large programs
Hi,
I have a rather large project for which I would like to improve the debugging
startup time. Right now it takes GDB a good 20-30 seconds (loading symbols
and such, I assume) from invoking 'run' to really executing the debugged
program.
Does anyone have info or a pointer to info on how to optimize this?
Thanks,
Nick
