Xcode 4 – slow performance

If you purge the workspace file it helps speed it up.

First, make sure Xcode isn’t open. Now find your project file. Right-click on it, and select Show Package Contents.

Edit: I’ve gotten several comments about this noting that for some projects this might cause problems. Make sure you have a backup of your project before performing these steps, and don’t forget to check and test your project afterwards. Be sure you still have all of your executables and schemes.
