Extremely sluggish debugging performance of XCode 3.0

Good day Gentlemen

While debugging my projects in XCode 3.x I realized my 2Ghz iMac is really sluggish and CPU monitoring widgets quite soon revealed - the problem is in XCode itself - it constantly hogs CPU at 100%. In order to simplify things up I created an extremely stupid loop - here it is

int i,c;

for(i=0,c=0;i<999;i++)
{
   c++;
}

The main idea of this loop is to press Step Over around 2 times in a second and watch CPU load. On XCode 2.5 it's ~ 5-10% on one of the cores ( MacBook 2,1 XCode 2.5, Tiger 10.4.11) on Leopard (iMac 2Ghz, latest fixes, XCode 3.0) it's solid 100% on one of the cores and overall quite a bit more sluggish than on 2.5.

Can anyone confirm this issue with XCode and debugger - I have sometimes to 'work' in debugger for hours and it's responsiveness is important for me. May be it is XCode internal garbage collection?

Best regards,
            Platon
