What's your target? As I recall, this is not an Insight bug. I don't even 
think it's a gdb bug. I remember this came up a long time ago...

Mine certainly doesn't take this long, even on windows.

Umm... File->Close?

What release are you using? Type "gdb -v". Also when you run Insight, open 
a console window and type "tk info tclversion". What's the result?

If you want to debug it, I would try starting insight under gdb and 
setting a break in gdb_force_quit. This is the place where shutdown 
starts.
