Does this get better in 10.4?

Xcode 2.0 is much faster at most tasks. I don't know if it would improve your particular problem though.


Is there something I can do to make Xcode not slow? Must I buy a G5 to edit plain text files which are perfectly well editable by the oldest of computers that have good software?

In wouldn't bet on it being enough to solve your problem. What I would suggest that you do is:


1) Use Shark to collect information about your problem, and file a performance bug report to Apple. Don't forget to peek in the sample report from Shark - sometimes you can see what the problem is, and if you're lucky it's something that you can switch off in Xcode.

2) Find a way to workaround the problem. While they certainly seem to attempt to head in that direction, I don't expect Xcode to ever fit every need of every developer on the platform. You should expect to sometimes have to look for solutions outside of Xcode.

An external editor would probably be the best thing for you in this case. Have a look at Smultron (some of my colleagues use it), BBEdit, or TextMate - or possibly one of the UNIX thingies that Corey mentioned.
