Hi!

Yes, same editor speed problem here.

I also turned off options (Spotlight indexing, auto completion, code folding ribbon etc.).
All that did not increase speed of text editing significantly.

You don't specifically mention syntax coloring, which you can turn off in the Xcode preferences window via the Fonts & Colors icon, then unchecking the "Use syntax-based formatting" and "Color indexed symbols" checkboxes.


If you haven't tried that, then try it and see if that helps.

Then I played around with different project sizes.
I found out that with a new project speed is OK at first. But when going on
working with the newly created project, at some point (could not find out why)
editor slows down and does not get back to full speed.


After all I simply pulled the plug and moved back to XCode 2.5 for now.
I did not find the time to analyze XCode 3.0 with performance tools yet.


All tested on PPC.

Hi,
after one week of 3.0 usage I have to admit that the new IDE has much slower(would say sluggish) editor then the 2.5 counterpart (i wonder why nobody complains :)).
I have to deal with a mid-size C++ projects (~200000 lines = 300 files) which have some "big" files with ~ 7000 lines content. The editor in 2.4.X - 2.5 was handling such files just fine - now it forces me to think about switching back to Xcode 2.5 - slow scrolling (with 50% CPU jumps) / source navigating and small delays on almost any keyboard operation - I dont know what to say - Apple puts the "performance improvements in editor" as one of the "shining" new features ... :)
Well I dont really believe that on the 2.0G C2D iMac with 2Gb RAM I should experience such slowness... I have the brand new clean Leopard installation, it flies on this box, so it can not be any of the OS external problems - all applications work smooth and quick.
Does anybody know any quirks/tips how to tune the Xcode 3.0 editor?
I tried almost all things starting with turning of coloring (helps, but only a bit) and ending with turning of all toolbars/panels/ autocompletion... Does not help too much!
Thanks for your help!
