Dubug Console slows XDK to a crawl

When developing an app, xdk works OK, emulation is reasonably quick, however that all changes if I open the debug console.

Initially all is OK, but subsequent code changes and clicking the emulation tab causes the debug console to reload and it then takes a very long time before you have control of the app under emulation.

I can be waiting 30 secs or more before I get back control. When trying to actively debug an app, these 30 secs plus leads to great frustration.

Running version 2366 on Yosemite 10.10.5 with 8GB RAM MacBook Air

Are you talking about debugging in the Debug tab?  Or the debugger in the emulator?

Sorry yes, debugger in the Emulator

Yes, you're better off closing the debug window in between changes, as these changes will cause a restart of your app in the emulator anyway.  It should keep track of your breakpoints when you reopen the debugger.  Will that work for you?

Thanks!
