Changing filenames in the project also was very SLOW. I'm using a 2 x 2.66Ghz dual-core Xeon and filename changes often take 30seconds to a minute or more. That's just to change one filename on Xcode 2.5. I would be delighted to move to Xcode 3.0 if these changes didn't take so long.

Changing filenames in a project isn't a new thing. How do other development softwares handle it? And does it take tons of time and careful hands in order to get the "simple" task done without breaking anything?

 I want to vent about something. It seems that if a file is outside
the project folder, the "Rename" in Xcode 3.0 does not actually change
the file name on disk, just its display name in the project.  I
suppose I'm being "protected" from doing something bad, but I'm not
sure what it is. IMO this was a very bad design change. Rename the .h
for a class and you suddenly have 100 errors and have to switch to the
Finder to see what's really going on. Xcode 2.x actually changed the
file name on disk: it was simple, straightforward, and predictable.
Change it back in Xcode 4.x..
