Design Elements: Using GDB (4) Thus, this code has the following properties The most often used files for disassembly gravitate toward the front of the queue and are found quicker that less often used files The length of the queue determined how many simultaneous pipes to GDB processes are held open and is user-configurable with "-g " Setting -g to 1 (one) will force using only one slave GDB process and save memory but performance will suffer Setting -g to many will improve performance, however memory consumption will go up
