Importing `pdb` does not slow down the application significantly (it just adds the import time but does not otherwise affect the application). Only when you execute code under debugger control, the execution is significantly slowed down (because the debugger gets informed (via callbacks) about important "event"s (entering a line, function call, function return, exception) during the execution). -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
