I recognized that the recent gdb version 10.2 speeds up symbol loading
on Windows, see

* Improved performance during startup through the use of threading
during symbol table loading (an optional feature in GDB 9, now
enabled by default in GDB 10).

You may verify this with a recent kmymoney snapshot from
https://kmymoney.org/snapshots.php#kmymoney5-aq6
<https://kmymoney.org/snapshots.php#kmymoney5-aq6>, which now contains
gdb 10.2.

If you want a standalone gdb package that is independent of kmymoney and
better suited for testing with your gdb printer GSOC project, you can
check https://kmymoney.org/snapshots.php#gdb-snapshot.
