things that are clearly not apple's fault

[rwx]

if i run my development environment and mail at the same time, the code that syncs my chat client and the address book consumes 100% of CPU and causes them both to fail horribly. It seems to be data that's been in my address book since 2004 that's causing the problem.

i don't even know how to think about solving this, is there a CoreData browser that can open up address book stuff? I CAN HAZ URIs.

I'm tempted to bring this problem to the genius bar just so i can see people's eyes melt.
