Programmer's Killswitch

Have this running while you use Xcode. If it starts driving the system into paging hell, press ctrl-⌘-X.

Download it from this page.

Currently, the Killswitch will kill these processes:

  • Xcode
  • Instruments

And not yet these, but someday:

  • gdb
  • lldb

The kill in question is SIGKILL, the famous “kill -9”.
