Eclipse performance problems

Hello all,

I am getting extremely frustrated with DS-5 and Eclipse and it's connection to my target.

It is extremely slow, sometimes taking a few minutes to respond. Eclipse will sit at 100% utilization of a core, and apparently, be doing NOTHING.

Not only that, single stepping, memory viewing and pretty much anything takes a very long time.

Even initial startup takes a very, very long time.

This is, by far, one of the slowest debuggers I have ever used and I'm seriously considering not renewing any support contract with it.

Outline of setup:-

Marvell SoC system,

Connection via Ethernet, using gdbserver to debug an application,

JTAG is not available, due to encryption on JTAG port.

Target system is running linux 3.4.50, it's a dual core system running at 1GHz.

There may be a fundamental set up issue with DS-5 or Eclipse, if there is, I need to resolve this.

I would very much appreciate any assistance in diagnosing this problem. I need to debug my application, and this is not helping.
