Speed up gdb loading

[Da Viper]

Hello a little update,

 just checked,  the gdb crash is not limited to my printer also exist
printer

Including the one in kdevelop (try to print qvariant),

I think it crashes when you try to access any memory, not hundred percent
sure.

For Kdevelop printer I think it crashes at line 698 when it tries to parse
the data type

and mine when in qtprinter_py2 line 850-851

when I try to access the memory of the  private pointer
