The plugin wants to check what features your gdb has. I wonder why this
takes so long. Perhaps there is another gdb argument to do this
quickly?

Do you see the "Reading symbols from" message? You could change the
plugin runtime/pack/dist/opt/termdebug/plugin/termdebug.vim

" Reading symbols might take a while, try more times
let try_count -= 1

Change "1" to a large number, e.g. "100" or "1000".
Let us know if that helps.
