As was mentioned, having indexing take a long time and a lot of disk
activity may be a side-effect of poor project configuration:

project
- Setting the Project Root (Project > Edit Project Settings > General)
to an enclosing folder that encompasses a lot of non-project files

I can't boot to 10.6 right now to check Xcode 3.2, but is that now a different setting than the source control root? I found that our source control root needs to be at the actual root folder for a given branch, which means that tons of other projects and unrelated files will be under that root. So is it now possible to set the project root to the project's folder, and the source control root to some place lower (lower as in "down the tree, from leaf to root" not "up the root system from underground to the surface")? Oh, that's probably still under NDA. Can you just say "yes, I'm betting those will be two different things in 3.2" or "no, you're cracked"? :)


All I know is that we never used 3.1 because almost every action (opening project, saving a source file, etc) would result in 5 or 10 minutes of disk thrashing. So I looked 3.1 square in the face and went "pbtpttbptbpb", which is too bad because I was looking SO forward to some of the new features.
