Gentlemen,

I run Xbase++ 1.9 on a relatively new computer, OS Windows 7, with an 
SSD drive. All programs run very fast, but the Xbase debugger is very, 
very, very, very slow.
This problem has been posted in another thread earlier but has never 
been solved. In the end I simply stopped using Xbase on that machine. I 
need to solve this now. Is there anyone who recognises the problem ?

Kind regards,
Jan Groenestein

Hi Jan!
I have the same problem. Everything had been worked fine and then, one day,
debugger slowed down. On the other computer debugger works fine. I also
posted message here on newsgroup, but never have solved the problem.
I'm still using v1.90.355 SL1 with HotFix RollUp 50.
Hope for any suggestion.
Regards,
Damir

Hi,

Have you tried temporarily disabling the anti-virus.  I use Kaspersky
and find that the debugger runs better when KAV is disabled.  Of
course I could also go through the AV settings and create exceptions
but for some reason these exceptions are not always retained or they
get reset back.

Regards... Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

Yesss, that was it. I earlier tried to solve the problem by stopping the 
anti-virus but this changed nothing. Now I tried again and this time it 
did work ! I have no idea what I did wrong the first time. Also, I added 
the debugger to the exception list, and this also works well. We'll have 
to see wether this is for keeps.

Thank you for this tip !

Kind regards,
Jan

Hi Jan and Jonathan!
After Jan has solved his problem with slow debugger, I decided to play with
my antivirus (NOD32). I discovered that HIPS (Host-based Intrusion
Prevention System) slows down debugger. After I've added new rule in HIPS
rule management for VXIDE20.EXE, debugger is working fast.
Adding VXIDE20.EXE, or even whole Alaska folder, in standard exclusions
didn't work.
After one year of sloooooow debugging I'm on a horse again !
Thanks Jan & Jonathan

Damir

I'm always wondering why developers are using antivirus software...

Jan,

I have this problem when there are too many breakpoints in the project. 
Expecially 1.9 creates a lot of breakpoints by itself. Delete them in 
the xpj, and it's much faster.

Hi Jan,

Thanks for the tip, but that cannot be the cause. On two different 
machines I use exactly the same project, on two different machines, one 
is fast (relatively), the other is slooooow.
Anyway, the mystery is solved, see my reply to Jonathan.

Kind regards,
Jan Groenestein
