Extremely slow when "Reading debug information"

Details:

* Native C++

* .exe size is 41 MB

* .pdb size is 790 MB

* Machine is dual quad core xeon @ 1.6 GHz, running on an SSD



We are using a significant amount of template metaprogramming, boost, stl and other modern C++.



By extremely slow I mean that it takes ~10 minutes for "Reading debug information" to complete.



Any tips on how to speed things up?



PS: I am only able to profile a very small number of the object files in the application - last time I tried to profile everything it crashed - but I don't want to bother chasing that at the moment because it takes too long to reload the .aqt project file.

    Hi,

    For those who are interested, I can tell that Zac has submitted a support request on this issue, but, unfortunately, we could not help. The current version of AQtime reads all debug information, and if its size is very large, the process takes some time.
