Not only for STL types, all variable types were problematic. I can think of boost::shared_ptr, and my own types.
Actually the problem was deeper than only when I tried to look at variables, sometimes, each debug steps were very, very slow with the CPU at 100% (gdb process) between each steps...
However, when I browsed to the Preference page as you suggested, I saw something that caught my attention: under C/C++->Debug->GDB there is a "Use enhanced debug hover" checkbox that was checked. In fact it was the "enhanced" that got me wondering, usually when I see that kind of phrasing, I get suspicious if I am looking for problems. I unchecked it, just to put my assumption to test and guess what: I have no more slow downs between debugging steps or when I try to look at variables (so far)!
Formidable.
