I saw in the Xcode 4 release notes that there's a section on installing Xcode 4 and 3.2.x simultaneously, but I just want to verify - is this really a supported configuration? I'm asking because I remember that having different 3.x versions on the same partition wasn't really supported, while having 2.5 and 3.x *was* fully supported.

Things work for me.
Though what probably would not work is what you say you're doing: running the Xcode 4 performance tools with Xcode 3.2.6. You should use the 3.2.6 performance tools (Instruments) with Xcode 3.2.6. That works for me.
