--- Comment #11 from Vicki Pfau <vi at endrift dot com> ---
I am using 11.1, but I think part of the problem is that Arch adopted
debuginfod relatively recently and hasn't backfilled packages. I updated my
packages yesterday and it took forever to start gdb today, but I think it was
actually downloading most of those packages so it shouldn't leave negative
cache this time. I don't know how debuginfod federation works either, but I'd
absolutely believe that Arch's server is just slow for one reason or another,
and somehow that's causing issues even though I'm querying the sourceware one
directly.

When I updated gdb a few days ago I did notice that the way information was
presented to the user changed, and it did seem faster, but I'm unsure if that
was just placebo effect due to the fact that it was telling me more information
now.
