In parallel, every memory Read() and Write() in # Memory_inline.h calls CheckBreakpoints(address, write) which dispatches to # CheckMemoryBreakpoints(). # # Both functions iterate the full m_breakpoints std::vector with # an O(B) linear scan (B = number of breakpoints set). A GB_Sharp Game Boy runs # at ~4 MHz with roughly 1-2 memory accesses per opcode. At 60 fps this yields # approximately 4,000,000 breakpoint vector scans per second. With B breakpoints # set, the cost becomes O(B * 4,000,000) per second — pure quadratic growth. # # Example: a developer debugging a game sets 64 breakpoints for a full memory # map view. Each of the ~4M accesses/second now scans 64 entries = 256M # comparisons/second, collapsing emulation speed. # # Complexity: O(B) per memory access/opcode => O(B * accesses/frame) per frame # Effective ratio at B=64: ~64x slowdown in the debug inner loop # # Fix: # Maintain three secondary std::unordered_set indices — one for execute # breakpoints, one for read, one for write — rebuilt once in RebuildBreakpointIndex() # whenever the breakpoints list changes (add / remove / clear). # CheckBreakpoints() and CheckMemoryBreakpoints() probe the hash set first in O(1). # The O(B) vector scan is retained only as a slow-path for range breakpoints # (brk.range == true), which are rare. Point breakpoints (the common case) are # now O(1) per access. # # Total cost per memory access: O(1) amortized instead of O(B). # Speedup at B=64: ~64x in the debug inner loop. # # Severity: MEDIUM # Affects only debug builds with breakpoints enabled, but this is exactly the # developer experience path. A slow debugger makes development painful and can # mask timing-sensitive defects in emulated software. # # References: # - CWE-407: Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity # - Memory_inline.h:10 (Read calls CheckBreakpoints) # - Memory_inline.h:65 (Write calls CheckBreakpoints) # - Processor.cpp:549 (DisassembleNextOPCode calls CheckBreakpoints)
