extremly slow when in debug mode?

[dan2000]

I am using JBuilderX + Jboss 3.2.3

I am trying to debug my servlet,jsp and ejb in jboss by enabling following statement in run.bat:
set JAVA_OPTS= -Xdebug -Xnoagent -Djava.compiler=NONE -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=y %JAVA_OPTS%

it takes about 50 seconds to startup the server and it's very slow for every operation after started. Is there any better way to improve the performance in debuging mode?

I think by definition running in debug mode will allways reduce the performance due to the additional overhead of debugging.

It is possible that the JBoss IDE doumentation may cover this in some way as although it is for Eclipse it is used for debugging JBoss.

are there any document talking about this in detail?
