I was debugging a crash in vlc today - actually in the Intel VDPAU driver - and debuginfod (which dynamically downloads the debuginfo for everything in a coredump) took a good 15 minutes to run. If you look at the 'ldd /usr/bin/vlc' output it's only about 10 libraries, but it loads dozens and dozens more dynamically using dlopen, and I think probably those libraries dlopen even more. This tool could be pretty useful to visualise that.
