Which is one excellent reason to run Emacs from GDB to begin with.
Then it will run at normal speed.

(The problem with attaching GDB to a running Emacs is that in that
case Emacs already installed its low-level keyboard hook, and that has
global effects on the other programs running on the system.  When you
start Emacs under GDB, it notices that it is being debugged, and
refrains from installing the keyboard hook.)
