I very much preferred it when the code completion popup would appear immediately and automatically, as in Xcode 2.x. Is there some way of getting that behavior back in 3.0? My old PowerBook lags on text editing now (up to a quarter-second between letters, between the third an fourth letters of a word) as the codesense engine searches for the right completion and fills it in, something it never did ini 2.x. Is there some hidden preference I can set to get the old behavior back?

If it's primarily the lag that bothers you and you rarely need the code completion, you could configure an external editor. I like BareBone's TextWrangler for that purpose - it's essentially BBEdit without the HTML markup tools. Unlike BBEdit, it's free, and the HTML tools aren't really needed very often for Cocoa work anyway.

Project files are compatible, and Xcode 2.5 runs on Leopard, so if it **REALLY** bothers you, and you use 2.x's completion fairly often, you could edit in 2.5 and build in 3.0.
