Re: WakeOnLan + Xcode2.2 = beachball?

I stated using a "WakeOnLan" utility about a month ago to help wake up computers for parallel compiling with Xcode2.2 on PPC G5 with 10.4.5. (WakeOnLan version 0.70, Copyright 2006 Dirk Lembens). This works great, except that as the other computers wake up, performance in the Xcode editor seems to degrade. At first I though it was my imagination, but now I really that the beach balls I observe when editing are very tightly correlated with usage of WakeOnLan. Has anyone else noticed such a thing? I have search the mailing list archives for "WakeOnLan" and there doesn't appear to be any comments about this.

Distributed builds uses Bonjour to detect machines for ad-hoc workgroup style compilation. So, if you wake a bunch of machines at once, it is conceivable that the local machine would temporarily slow down as the various services of the remote machine are discovered. However, the slowdown should be short lived.

Can you send me a sample from Xcode when it is experiencing the slowness?

thanks,
