--- Comment #1 from Jekyll Wu <adaptee at gmail.com> ---
There is a quick trick :

  1. open /usr/share/apps/drkonqi/debuggers/internal/gdbrc
  2. change the line :

        "Exec=gdb -nw -n -batch -x %tempfile -p %pid %execpath"

     into 

        "Exec=nice gdb -nw -n -batch -x %tempfile -p %pid %execpath"


However, I personally never have the feeling that drkonqi(actually, it is gdb)
is taking too much time or too much CPU resource to generate the backtrace that
it influences my normal workflow. So I can't say whether that trick will bring
noticeable change. 

Also, someone reports drkonqi (again, it is actually gdb) takes too long time
to generate the backtrace. If we make drkonqi(gdb) nicer, it will takes even
longer time for that user. See bug 318635.
