Stripping debug symbols from my test program has no effect. The gdb program still takes 20-30 seconds to open my text programs written using Lazarus. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

I've done a little google foo searching and have come up empty. Don't know, but maybe a guess and a question. Does gdb output anything during this time? GDB loads info about libraries used (watch mem usage), though over 20 secs seems long set auto-solib-add off There may be other such hidden work of gdb, but I wouldn't be aware of it (there is follow forks, but that must be off) - If you strip the executable, and then run it in gdb what happens? You can't debug, obviously. But gdb has less work to do. -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
