Is there any way to reduce how much memory Xcode uses while debugging
a program?  My last email to this list took 25 minutes to compose
because the computer would swap for five minutes every time I switched
between Xcode (to check something) and Safari (to write the mail).

For that matter, is there some way to find out how much actual memory
(physical + swap space) is allocated to a program?  The "virtual
memory" column of Activity Monitor clearly isn't it: it reports
approximately 11GB among all programs, while the swap files are only
4GB in size.

Do you have Guard Malloc enabled? (It's near the bottom of the Debug menu.) If you do, disabling it would greatly reduce memory consumption.
