This is too general to be a useful bug report unless it happens for all program
that you debug.  I don't see it debugging Emacs.  It probably is Emacs that
makes it slow but have you tried gdb on your program from the command line?
What happens there?  How deep is your stack?  Have you got many watch
expressions in the speed bar? large numbers of local variables?  lots of extra
RAM?  which GUD related buffers to you have open?, etc, etc...
