I see the same issue debugging C++ applications using GDB 7.6 with Qt Creator. 

Getting a list of local variables and their values after hitting a breakpoint
takes at least 10s where it is almost instantaneous in GDB 7.5.

This time can increase dramatically (> 2 min!) with the complexity of the code
containing the breakpoint.

GDB 7.6 is not usable in this setup, I had to revert back to GDB 7.5. I would
seriously consider raising the importance of this regression.
