The debugger consists of two parts (main and kernel), to
accommodate the debugging of multiprocess programs.
o For a program that runs in one process, a debugging session
requires two processes instead of one.
o For a multiprocess program, a debugging session requires as
many processes as are used by the program, plus an additional
process for the main debugger.
Under these conditions, several users who are simultaneously
debugging programs can place an additional load on a system. The
subtopics describe the resources used by the debugger so that you
can tune your system for this activity.
The discussion covers only the resources used by the debugger.
In the case of multiprocess programs, you might also have to tune
your system to support the programs themselves.
