CLI based debugging in gdb is painful. Whether logging or using a 
debugger is faster really depends IMO. I think regular 
tracing/logging is easier when you debug recursive stuff like 
parser or regexp engines, but a debugger is easier when you have 
NULL dereferencing issues, when you are getting wrong values in 
complex calculations or when loops don't terminate when they are 
supposed to.
