> How can I find the number of buffer markers?

Compile Emacs with -DMARKER_DEBUG, and then you can call count_markers
from GDB:

  (gdb) print count_markers(current_buffer)

But you need to make sure current_buffer is the buffer you are
interested in.  One trick is to do this:

  (gdb) break Fredraw_display

and then type "M-x redraw-display" with the buffer in the selected
window.  Then call count_markers as above, and it should return the
number of markers in the current buffer.
