Delphi: OnClick breakpoint problems

Over here I asked a question about the speed of my application creating and destroying a number (25) of frames.

Whilst trying to track down the solution I have created a new vers开发者_如何学运维ion of my application that has the base interface elements on the Main Form and Frame and have run into another problem that I cannot fathom.

In the application the 25 Frames are created on startup. Then, on a button click, the frames are destroyed and recreated. In the full application the frames will be populated with different information on each click, whilst in the test application the frames are just recreated.

Problem

Having placed a Breakpoint on the OnClick procedure of the Reload button I am seeing increasingly long times to trigger the break.

In the last set of testing the timings were (from each click) 3s, 10s, 13s, 20s, 25s.

As far as I can tell everything in the Load procedure has completed before I click and reload.

I suspect that the above, rather than the Frames themselves, is the root of the other issue.

Any suggestions?

Update I have identified that the problem is with the Delphi Debugger somewhere. Without the breakpoint reaction from the button is much more what I'd expect. There is also a large degree of slowdown when placing a breakpoint onClick in another Project.

I have tried to "Repair" the install - any other options?

I've tracked down the problem with the OnClick breakpoint - don't yet know if it solves the problem with the application though.

The issue seems to be that I'd turned on the following setting in the Tools > Options menu

The setting of interest was Debugger Options > Event Log > Messages > Windows Messages

Hope this helps
