[LLVMdev] Debug Info Slowing Things Down?!

I think that debug info is slowing a self-hosting build down. This build has been going for ages now and shows no sign of quitting. To reproduce, build a Release+Asserts build of clang. Then use that to build a Debug+Asserts version. Include all of the bells and whistles, like the clang-extras and compiler-rt libraries.

The reason I suspect debug info is because of this stack trace:

[morbo:llvm] lldb -p 92084
Attaching to process with:
    process attach -p 92084
Process 92084 stopped
Executable module set to "/Users/morbo/llvm/llvm-clean.obj/Release+Asserts/bin/clang".
Architecture set to: x86_64-apple-macosx.
