I also wouldn’t go as far as to call it a “piece of crap,” but I will say that Xcode 4.0.x, being garbage-collected (not sure of 4.1.x or higher), was a radical change and probably fueled a lot of Apple’s desire to replace garbage collection with something a bit more sane.

Mind you this was on a machine that was just booted up a few minutes prior and the only reason XCode was even started was to look at a couple of .plist files.    XCode couldn't handle that and actually bogged down the machine trying to use a file open dialog.   Eventually XCode crashed.
