   While comparing mxml files Flex3 just kills itself - 50% CPU usage,
   takes about 30 seconds to compare 700 lines of code.

I've been experiencing the same thing, when comparing with repository
*or* local history files. All documents less than a 1000 lines and it
takes easily 30 seconds. This should be instant. Unlike what the forum
poster suggests in the link, Flex isn't doing any kind of
sophisticated XML diffing (which still shouldn't take as long), it's
doing a straight text-diff line-by-line.

I'm running Flex Builder 3 on OS X.

I love local history and use it all the time... or did... it's now
becoming quite a problem to deal with.
