37 minutes to start a script - why?

OS: Windows XP Pro
I posted this earlier but I think it was to the wrong forum so am repeating it here.
I have a tcl script of some 3500 lines that I wish to do some debugging but when I tried it took 37+ minutes to start up the script. Am I missing something? I'm using a dual Xeon 2 GHz machine with Windows XP Pro OS so it should be fairly fast. Without debugging the script starts up in about 21 seconds. Any ideas?

The Tcl debugger has to instrument the entire application before running it, and at 3500 lines your application will instrument very slowly inside the debugger environment.
