xcode code-indexing intermittent hangs

I just started getting hangs of 5-10 seconds during code indexing in xcode 3.1. As an example:

- I edit a header file and save
- Activity Viewer shows xcode indexing the cpp files that include that header
- while that indexing is happening, I try typing in an editor window, pulling down a menu, etc. I get a spinning wheel in xcode. Other applications continue to be normally response.
- when indexing completes in the Activity Viewer, xcode is normally responsive again


This is on an 8-core Mac Pro... so there's plenty of cores just sitting around waiting to do that re-indexing job without tying up my UI....

Is anyone else seeing anything like this? Any ideas on how to investigate?

What I've tried:
- turn off indexing: that indeed makes the hangs cease
(is turning it off and back on enough to cause the index to fully rebuild?)
- clean build, cleaning dependencies


(One rather weak suspicion... this started happening not long after moving my account from a local one to a mobile account via Portable Home Directories on a local-network Leopard Server 10.5.6; but PHD appears to be working fine, and moreover the xcode project is not in my home directory.)

THANKS FOR IDEAS!
Dan
