So, let's look back to my findings from my original post: opening an

TextEdit to lay out the whole file takes 20 seconds.

Now, opening the same file in Xcode and forcing again a layout of the
whole file takes Xcode a bit over 2 minutes or more than 120 seconds.
I pasted CarbonEvents.h onto itself 32 times to create a 16Mb file
with
466K lines. From hitting Open to being able to flick between top/
bottom,
the times were:
BBEdit 8 2 seconds
CodeWarrior 9 6 seconds
TextEdit (10.4) 58 seconds
Xcode 2.1 95 seconds
So whatever extra work Xcode is doing doesn't amount to a x6 slowdown
for me, it's more like x1.5 (on a 1.25Ghz/1Gb PB).
This is more in line with what we see here. (Also note that if you
copy the formatted text from Xcode into a TextEdit window, you get
similar results with the two apps.) More than a 2x slowdown compared
with TextEdit sounds like an old version of Xcode. Xcode 2.0 and
later are _much_ faster than Xcode 1.5 and earlier. (And Xcode 1.5
was much faster than Project Builder.) That said, we are still well
aware that we need to do better. We're working on it.
