some of our .m file have more than 4000 loc and we maybe should split
them... strange that with emacs i never felt the need to split my big
files !
I edit 5-10 thousand line files fairly regularly in XCode, and don't
see any appreciable difference in speed between these and any smaller
size. The biggest thing you can do to improve performance is to turn
off indexing, since that's the biggest waste of time, followed by
predictive compiling, which tends to swing from way overzealous to off
randomly.
XCode is very sluggish at times when you do any major semantic changes
- e.g. adding/deleting functions, or somesuch. It updates it's various
shortcut menu's and the like... I don't think there's a way to turn
those off, although generally they're not too much of a problem.
My biggest beef with XCode is it's continually degrading text
rendering, which has all manner of bugs, particularly in 1.2. If
anyone knows how to work around the bug where it redraws text several
lines offset (requiring a page up/down or similar to force a
re-render), I'd love to know it.

P.S. FWIW, the biggest bug with the previous version, the crash
whenever you typed "*/" under whatever particular conditions, has been
fixed in 1.2. That made me very happy. :)
