I also did some more testing. The magic does not lie in the NSLog() but in the elapsed time. On my machine the sending of a message to remoteObjectProxy must NOT be done earlier than ca. 180 μsec after [NSXPCConnection resume]. Without anything in between these are only 50 μsec apart. Not enough. NSLog() adds a sufficient delay of almost 250 μsec. But usleep(130) also does the trick. Code: #include <mach/mach_time.h> ... aCo.remoteObjectInterface = [ NSXPCInterface interfaceWithProtocol: @protocol(ZipProtocol) ]; [ aCo resume]; uint64_t machTime1 = mach_absolute_time(); id ree = [ aCo remoteObjectProxyWithErrorHandler: ^(NSError *err)... usleep(130); uint64_t machTime2 = mach_absolute_time(); [ ree command: ... uint64_t elapsed = machTime2 - machTime1; double microSec = elapsed * 1e-3; > Have you filed a Radar report on this yet? Not yet. Will do tomorrow.
