[lldb-dev] How to enumerate stopped threads in C++ API?

[Jim Ingham via lldb-dev]

I'm surprised that this turns out to be a bottleneck.  All the work to create the threads should have been done when you stopped, so this should just be running over a vector that already exists and pulling a field out.  Can you profile this and see what is actually slow?
