Ok. I re-read the thread and I see that at the beginning you didn't
mention -readnow. So, assuming that the -readnow stuff was a
distraction...
The new indexer should not be significantly slower even when
single-threaded. On my machine, if I "maint set worker-threads 0" and
then use a -O2 build of gdb, it's about as fast as the system /bin/gdb
(which uses the old code).
Old:
(gdb) file ./gdb
[...]
Command execution time: 2.408843 (cpu), 2.130013 (wall)
New:
(gdb) file ./gdb
[...]
Command execution time: 2.858222 (cpu), 2.865426 (wall)
This is only slightly worse.
Now there is a known bug in some linkers when -g3 is used, which causes
a pretty severe slowdown in gdb. See:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27754
I would have thought that this could not affect your build. However I
don't know for certain.
Tom
