Difference between Step over and Run

I have noticed in the debugger that there is quite a difference in
time of execution between
Step over
and
Run
even when Run takes me to the very next line of code--a line which is
also a break point.
When the handler to be Stepped over is complex, the time to execute
Step over can be prohibitive. In such cases I set a break point at
the next line and Run to the next line. This is VERY much faster.
Is this a bug? Wouldn't it be better if RR executed Step over as if
it were a Run to the next line of code? Does the "Step over" do
something other than "Run" to the next line when that next line is a
breakpoint?
