Has anyone else experienced performance problems with gdb 4.6 when
debugging C++ programs (compiled with g++ 2.2.2)?  In my (large)
program, it often takes several seconds of CPU time (on a Sparc-2) to
evalute a simple expression or to display a stack frame.  With stack
frames, some are fast and some are always very slow (even when
displaying them for the second or third time, i.e. it's not a startup
problem).

I have recompiled gdb twice (with two different compiler and making
sure optimization was turned on), with no effect.  Also, there's
absolutely no problem with paging.
