No process is eating the CPU (I'm seeing this on a PowerMac G5 1.8
GHz MP 1 GB Ram) according to top (top is the one eating most of the
cpu as a matter of fact).
If you think it might be blocking on a system call, you can use
ktrace(1) to see if there's anything suspicious when the app is
blocking. (ktrace shows you the system calls being made by a program,
the arguments and result codes).
You can trace Xcode by running in one terminal window:
ktrace /Developer/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode
(this will put into the current directory a file called ktrace.out)
Then in another terminal window (or background Xcode. I like keeping
them in separate windows so that I can see any console log output)
kdump -l
(lower case ell). That'll do a continual poll of ktrace.out for new
stuff, and will display the new stuff in a human readable format.
Hopefully there will be a smoking gun at the end of the trace while
Xcode is pausing during launch.
