Thats just the way it works. It takes forever between page loads  
because it has to load the rails framework, your rails app and  
webrick all into the debugger so its just slow. The whole debugger is  
pure ruby so the results you are getting are to be expected. They are  
talking about rewriting the debugger in C to increase the speed though.
