Finding an disabling particular calls in an application?

Is there any practical way to find out which method in a Cocoa app does a particular thing (say an trace with the Sampler app), and then write an extension of some kind that would disable it? I'm thinking specifically about the function in xCode that automatically indexes all the files. I don't mind it indexing the project files, but it also indexes *all* the system header files (which takes a while on my G3 iBook, and slows down other things even though it is in the background), and also seems to reindex things when you perform a build, or maybe it's when you edit something.

It would seem much more efficient to store an index of the system headers, and merge it with the index of the project files, and whenever one codefile was changed, either just re-index the project files, or keep a separate index for each project file. Although I don't know how Apple's indexing tech works [is it released as an API?] and so don't know if such merging can be done.

Jim
