Personally I do not like to debug with printf's or gdb-like tools. The reason for that is you cannot easily skim data which are on stacktrace, you cannot so easily change those variables in runtime, and so many other things... https://i.ytimg.com/vi/WZN6O_JfMeM/maxresdefault.jpg I find out, that people which debugs with prints in most cases use vim as a editor. Don't let me wrong, I also like vim, but it is only *very powerful* editor. IDE gives you in most cases much more... but you have to give up more RAM ;)

When you are developing on remote servers, you don't always have the luxury of the nice GUI of various IDEs. X forwarding over ssh sucks ... For all my real debugging tools (whenever I am testing code on full-scale production on hundreds of cores and ten thousands of threads), I use PAPI hardware counters, but more importantly Score-P, which gives me a lot more detailed aggregate information on time spent in MPI communication, stack trace on a given thread, etc.

I should also add that I have to debug *other* people's code, so, in this case, gdb and addr2line are very useful, especially when I am not familiar with the codebase. Debugging my own code is a nightmare. Debugging other's is ***hell***.
