Hi. I have a very big problem debugging large ascii txt files, because, in this case, while a release version runs rather quickly, a debugger one is intolerably slow. I didn't calculate the speed ratio, but i guess that minutes in release mode become hours in debug mode. These files cannot be read in one shot, and must be processed line by line. I don't know if this is normal and if someone else has had this problem, or if there is a solution. In practice, in this case, no debugging is possible. Or, maybe, I am missing something, as I hope. Thanks in advance.

It's often recommended to test your apps in release mode as it's expected for the debugger to be slow in certain situations.
As an alternative, you could use BridgeLogger in release mode and "debug" with log statements.
