Git worktrees are great, but even one Xcode instance is enough to saturate my entire CPU when it does anything.

@a_grebenyuk Really? I’ve worked with worktrees for years without problems.

@kikeenrique worktrees are fantastic, but I can't quite get the workflow I want with agentic stuff. I want to be able to program myself in parallel with one or two background processes that also run builds and tests without making the machine unusable. Maybe I need a faster machine, or a separate one. I'm also getting frequent build system errors: "can't initialize", etc.

@a_grebenyuk @kikeenrique Even building and testing Xcode freaks out and takes forever to index when I simply change branches.

@dandylyons @kikeenrique exactly. I understand why this workflow is popular with the web folks though. For iOS, I have only one primary session and other ones are usually purely for research and planning. I'm seriously considering getting a secondary machine.
