System Workbench for STM32


Launching debug is very slow

It takes about 1 minute 25 seconds from launching debug until I am able to hit Resume to start the application.
A good 25 seconds is spent rebuilding the makefiles every single time even when no files have changed.
Almost a minute is spent at “Configuring GDB” sitting at 93%.

Note: the build time itself isn’t an issue, parallel make, i7-8700 @ 3.2GHz. It is rather quick compared to the things mentioned above.
