Question
No option to see what cypress is doing behind the scene or headlessly
a way to pass --debug to the CLI to see the cypress processes and probably to debug which process is time consuming
You can do DEBUG=cypress:* cypress run as outlined here: ~https://on.cypress.io/debugging#Debug-the-Command-Line~ https://on.cypress.io/troubleshooting#Print-DEBUG-logs

This "debug the command line", doesn't seem to exist on that doc page any more, did it move?
Aha nevermind, it moved to https://docs.cypress.io/guides/guides/command-line.html#Debugging-commands (mebbe a link between the two? or did I miss one)
The info was moved to our Troubleshooting guide https://on.cypress.io/troubleshooting#Print-DEBUG-logs
