after further inspection it turns out it's a performance regression between llvm 5 and llvm 6:
$homebrew_D/Cellar/llvm/5.0.1/lldb -s test_lldb.txt -- prog 8 seconds $homebrew_D/Cellar/llvm/6.0.0/bin/lldb -s test_lldb.txt -- prog 40 seconds cat test_lldb.txt: ``` b FOO r bt q ``` prog is some binary I'm debugging. It's unfortunately hard to reduce. What are good ways to investigate this?
