>Debug information tends to be large and linking it slows down linking quite considerably. If you’re like many developers and you generally use println for debugging and rarely or never use an actual debugger, then this is wasted time.
Interesting. Is this true? In my work (java/kotlin, primarily in app code on a server, occasional postgres or frontend js/react stuff), I'm almost always reaching for a debugger as an enormously more powerful tool than println debugging. My tests are essentially the println, and if they fail for any interesting reason I'll want the debugger.
