I'm not convinced that the overhead is negligible. You're
inserting an additional program and network stack trip in one
of the two known time-critical parts of GDB. I think it should
be *possible* to use gdbserver all the time, but I'd want to see
encouraging performance numbers before advocating that we commit
to using it. (Having gdbserver functional on all native configs
is kind of a prerequisite too. :-) )
