[lldb-dev] [AD] UltraGDB, an alternative tool to debug GCC, GDB, LLDB, etc. on Windows and Linux

[Greg Clayton]

Note that since you are using MI as the interface between your debugger GUI and the debugging backend (gdb) you can try using the lldb-mi layer and test performance between the GDB MI and the LLDB MI. Then you can rename your debugger to be UltraMI to keep your debugger agnostic the the backend debugger. :-)

I noticed in the youtube video that it took 40 seconds to set a breakpoint at lldb's main function and to run to the breakpoint and hit it. If you try LLDB MI, I am guessing it will be faster than 40 seconds.
