Situation:
When I launch Xcode
, socketfilterfw
, OS X
's application based firewall
, starts using a lot of CPU.
After some research I narrowed it down to this: socketfilterfw
reads all the files in Xcode.app
's bundle and does this every time Xcode
launches. Gigabytes of data, every time.
It doesn't matter what settings the firewall has, I tried them all. The only thing that stops this is to deactivate the firewall (before launching Xcode).
Has anyone else this effect or an idea what this is about?
Update
I just tried Xcode on a clean install (OS X and Xcode from ADC) and it did not solve it. But it started the scan not when Xcode launches but when a project gets executed (CMD-R). So it starts scanning either when Xcode launches or when executing a project.
