I started up a find (all projects and frameworks), and it has brought
XCode (1.5) to its knees (CPU monitor says 110% of my dual 1Ghz G4).
How do I stop it? I tried cmd-period, but that didn't do anything
Thanks!

You have several ways to do this. The "Find" button will change to "Stop Find" once the find process begins. Clicking "Stop Find" will stop the find task. Alternatively, you may use the "Tasks" toolbar button. When you start a find you will notice that the tasks toolbar button becomes enabled (if no other task is currently running) and a spyglass appears in the bottom right corner of it. Simply clicking on the tasks button will stop the find. Or, you may open the Activity Viewer from the Window menu and click the stop button next to the find task.
In Xcode 2.0 the "cmd-." command will stop the last activity started (represented by the "Tasks" toolbar button as well).
Also, we have had a report (rdar: 3730013) against Xcode 1.5 that indicated Xcode had hung during a find. If this is actually your issue, please submit a bug report and attach a sample of the Xcode process (if possible).
