[Xcode 4] Number of recommended displays/spaces?



Question: Is it recommended to use 2 displays/spaces with Xcode 4 or
is there a way to use it on a single display/space configuration?

I'm testing Xcode 4 with some sample projects to get used to it and
I'm finding it a bit difficult to use it with a single 30" display
(and a single space) when multitasking.

The problem I'm facing is that the Xcode 4 window is filling mostly
all the screen and for instance when I need to look for documentation
in Safari (or the documentation viewer), I always end up hiding the
documentation which I need to then bring back to the front (to
copy-paste things for instance).

I'm running Xcode 4 almost fullscreen because if I want to display the
source list, the inspector, the console and hopefully a bit of source
code, I have to.

Maybe I just need more practice using it but I would be interested in
knowing how people organizes their environment to work with Xcode 4 to
see if I can improve things on my side. (I certainly need more
practice as I usually end up quitting Xcode 4 when I've finished
modifying a xib as I think I'm in Interface Builder).
