You don't have to use the Xcode 4 IDE to take advantage of Xcode 4 Instruments!
You can install Xcode 4 side by side with Xcode 3. When installing, opt to install it to a folder different from your Xcode 3 installation, and untick all optional components.
You can then use Xcode 3 for your IDE-type tasks (editing, building, debugging, etc.), and you can run the Xcode 4 Instruments by hand from the Finder.
This is what I do, and it works well. Xcode 4 Instruments has no problem with binaries built with Xcode 3, and has provided me with some handy OpenGL ES tips.
