Actually, I did. It states that the host machine should not be set to sharing, as then other computers could distribute tasks to it, potentially overloading it. As there are no other computers trying to distribute builds on my network, this obviously isn't an issue, but I would still think that I shouldn't have "Share this computer" checked on the iMac.

The documentation also states that, quote: "The build client performs the build setup, linking, and product packaging. Preprocessing is also done on the build client" end quote. This does not, however, at least to my reading, preclude the build client from also performing compilation tasks-it merely says that the aforementioned tasks are run on the build client, rather than one of the shared computers.

That, at least, is all that I noticed in the documentation that pertains to the quoted statement. Is there something else that I am missing? Wouldn't be the first time :) Thanks.

One final thing is that over on the apple discussion boards where I initially posted this question, they are now saying that this is expected behavior, unless the iMac is also set to be shared. Specifically, that as the primary machine, the iMac would ONLY be used for linking, precompiled headers, etc, and not for the actual compilation. This doesn't sound right to me, or if it is right I don't think it should be, as it would be vasty under-utilizing the available computing power (at least in my situation), but I thought I'd mention it just in case.

It seems that you haven't read the chapter on this topic in the Xcode User Guide?
