I just found out that archiving and when "Setting Mode", strip is only using 5% of 1 core no matter how many are free cores there are on the current Mac. Strip is also not disk bound.
Just tried this across 3 Macs while archiving. Apparently, strip is single threaded and takes tens of seconds stripping symbols from intermediate files while never going over 5% CPU utilization on one core.
One question. Why?
One more question. Is it possible to renice strip so it is not so terribly slow?
I have Mac Pros that take LONGER than MacBooks to create an iOS archive in Xcode 8 because of this.
The Mac Pros a 6 core Cylinder and 12 core Tower with PCI SSD and > 40 GB of RAM while the MBPs are 2012 and 2014 4 core i7s with 16 GB of RAM, running off of SSDs.
Any clue why this is so slow?
Thanks,
Alex Zavatone
