I'm working on some code I'd like to step through in a debugger.

If I do this in XCode, there's a particular point where stepping over
lines blocks for abnormally long times, and where I get messages in
the debugger console reading "Timed out fetching data. Variable
display may be inaccurate."

The data formatters are taking a long time to be executed and this is blocking any other debugger functions until they timeout. You can set a breakpoint past the offending code and continue to there instead of stepping. I'd file a bug with a code excerpt. You can try unchecking the menu Debug->Custom Data Formatters and re-start the debugger to see if that makes a difference.

Thanks, this did the trick.

I can't file a bug right now because it's far too much code to feel safe passing around (this is one small section of a fairly large project). If I can put together a reasonable test case that demonstrates this, I'll file, but in the meantime I'm just glad to have a work-around.
