I've been having this issue for several versions of Xcode and am wondering if a) anyone else has this, and b) if there is a fix.

When I type a #include statement in my C++ code and then start typing the file name, Xcode tries to suggest file names as I type - that's great and exactly what I want. However, it sometimes (often) take a very long time (5-10 seconds) to start "suggesting" file names. And, of course, the editor is frozen in the meantime (spinning beach ball). It's so bad that I usually just type the file name first, cut it to the clipboard, then type the #include and paste the file name.

This happens on each of my systems (iMac Core 2 Duo, MBP Core Duo, PowerMac Dual 2.7GHz). I can't tell if it's a CPU loading or disk loading issue - the both seem to be hit really hard when it's formulating its file name suggestion.

Does anyone else have this issue?

Is there anything I can do to improve the performance? I've tried turning off Predictive Compilation and CodeSense, but it doesn't seem to improve anything.

If the path happens to start with "net", this is a known interaction between Xcode and the Mac OS X file system, where Xcode searches conventional paths for headers (including /) and Mac OS X automatically attempts to mount NFS file services for any reference to /net.


Any other lag or delay could be just witing for the indexer to catch up; enumerating a large or slow device or directory; or a bug. Please take a sample and file it at http://bugreporter.apple.com.
