esp8266 WATCHDOG on breakpoint halt :(

I'm using: Wemos D1 mini board,  esp8266 ver 2.3.0. 
(yes, toolbar is set to "debug")... Debugging with VisualMicro (1806.2.1):

When I halt on a breakpoint, 8 seconds later the watchdog timer resets.   Inserting  ESP.wdtDisable();   (even right before the breakpoint) doesn't help.

How can I halt on a VisualMicro breakpoint without the watchdog timer triggering?? Lips Sealed

Hi,

The debugger uses standard arduino command such as serial.print and sometimes delay()

There is some control of the delay() why switching to Debugger>Full Speed (No Throttle) but I suspect the issue is not going to resolve that easily.

If you switch on "show build folder" you will be able to see the debugger code that has been injected into the temp build files. For example breakpoints in .ino files will be in project_name.cpp

Any suggestions welcome.
