php debuggers which are not bloated

Question

any suggestions for good php debuggers, which are not bloated?

i tried using xdebug with dbgp plugin on notepad++, but it seems the dbgp plugin isn't compatible with notepad++ and hence, didn't work out crashing the app every time i accessed the debugger. any other suggestions?

Not sure it would qualify as "not-bloated", but I'm generally using Eclipse PDT (along with Xdebug), and it's working well.

I know colleagues who use netbeans, and are satisfied with it too (tried it MySQL a couple of times, didn't feel bad).

Maybe they are a bit heavy, yes... But they are full IDE, under active development, maintained, ... so, not a bad choice, IMHO.
