Xcode 8.0 beta 3 high memory usage

I've noticed very high memory usage with Xcode 8.0 beta 3 (8S174q) on my 2014 MacBook Air running macOS Sierra beta 3 (16A254g). The SourceKitService daemon appears to be leaking lots and lots of memory (20-30 GB after about a half hour). Is this happening to any of the rest of you? My radar number is 27527002.

This happens to me as well. I am using Xcode 8.0 beta 3, updated from Xcode 8.0 beta 1 yesterday. After a few hours using Xcode the 30-40GB of free space on my SSD fills up completely and the computer locks up. Using a mid 2013 Macbook Air on El Capitan (10.11.5).

OK, good to know that it's not just happening on Sierra. Have you filed your own radar yet? They do pay attention to the number of duplicate reports being filed as a way to gauge the severity of an issue.

My original radar was just flagged as a duplicate of radar 27358273.
