Debugging CakePHP in Netbeans always stops on index.php

Question

I've setup a CakePHP project in Netbeans and use xdebug for debugging. When I start a debugging session, Netbeans stops in the root index.php file on every request. I have to press continue and then my breakpoints are hit.

Is there a way to configure xdebug to avoid this behavior? It's pretty tedious having to hit continue on every request.

Thanks!
