Hmm, it doesn't happen to me. I take it that you have tried to at least
restart SeaMonkey afterwards (and perhaps also reboot the system)?
I have no idea what could be causing either the initial delay when
starting the JS Debugger nor the subsequent slowness when loading pages.
AFAIK that tool doesn't have platform specific parts, so this might not
be tied to OS/2.

I'm cross-posting this to mozilla.dev.apps.js-debugger to get input from
people who actually know that tool.

The behaviour stopped after a stop/start of Seamonkey and is now back to normal.
I'm reluctant to try it again because I've only just got my 11 tabs back open
