I was just wondering if there is a better way to go about this.  I'm working on a port of dim3 for the iPad, and dim3 needs project files to run.  These project files (the demo, which I'm testing with) can run up to 100+ meg (yes, in the future, projects for the iPad should be smaller and have less hi-res art).  I just created a runs script phase to "cp" the entire folder to inside the built app.  This all works great.

A trick I’ve seen is to use rsync instead of cp. This will intelligently copy over only those files that are different on the source and destination. It’s extremely fast if nothing’s changed.

Also, have you tried using a Copy Files build phase instead, since that’s what it’s for? It might have similar intelligence about avoiding redundant copies.
