You can adjust the timeout using the user default
'PBXGDBDataValueSequenceTimeout'. If you set it to zero then Xcode will
wait until gdb completes the operation it was given. As has been
mentioned, a really busy system, low on memory and swapping, can cause
the timeout to occur or if you have a lot of static variables gdb can
take a long time returning the results. This is much improved in the
next version of Xcode.
To set the timeout do the following in Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.Xcode PBXGDBDataValueSequenceTimeout 0
Hope this helps,

cursor. During the hang, XCode uses 100% CPU for an inordinate
amount of time (the most recent case was around 8 minutes).
Just before XCode hangs, the status display in the debug window
changes to:
"Timed out fetching variable data. Variable display may be
inaccurate."
and eventually (after several minutes) changes to:
