'continue' command of gdb is slow when many breakpoints are set.

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • When many breakpoints are set, "continue" command of gdb is slower than RHEL5.2(gdb-6.5).
  • The processing time when gdb is executed on RHEL6.0 alpha in the following procedures is as follows.
    • Set 2000 breakpoints.
    • Run "continue" command 2000 times.
  • I think that this issue is the same as IT#328066(BZ#520618) on RHEL5.3 and RHEL5.4.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 Alpha1
  • gdb-6.8.50.20090302-21.fc11.i586
