Switching in debug mode takes several minutes

Hello,

I am using Keil v5.26. To estimate the size of my project, the produced hexfile has a size of 0,5 MB. 

Unfortunately, I am facing a severe problem for the time I am programming on this project. Everytime I wanna go into debug-mode it takes round-about 5-7 Minutes till the debug interface appears. Meanwhile the application is frozen (see screenshot) for several minutes as mention. 

How can I prevent this? Of course, debugging is then even less fun.

    Please explain what you mean by that.

    You do realise that the size of an Intel Hex file is over twice the size of the data it represents ... ?

    the time I am programming on this project

    Again, please explain what you mean by this

    • Your time as a programmer engaged on this project ?
    • The time to blow the code into the taget ?
    • or what ?
    Everytime I wanna go into debug-mode it takes round-about 5-7 Minutes

    Again, more detail required!

    And is that time unique to this project? Have you tried other projects?

    with J-Link Plus

    How is it configured?

    If you use Segger's own utilities, is it as slow?

    Have you tried any other debug probe - eg, ST-Link.
