Xcode freezes at indexing, randomly, iPhone dev

My Xcode version is 4.6.2, which is the latest at this moment 2013.6.2, when I try to run a project(not a specified one) in simulator, it randomly freezes(stops) at indexing. I don't know if it's my macbook's problem because it's relatively a old one. My project is very light-weighted, just some demo. I'm a newbie. Normally, it works well, but sometimes it freezes at indexing, say 5% possibility.

And I cannot stop it even I clicked the "Stop" button at the right of "Run", and either if I close the simulator. I have to force the computer to shut down by keep pressing the power button. It brings damage to computer.

Anyone knows how to fix this? Or I have to get a newer one? Any help will be appreciated. THANKS.

Xcode 4.6.2 in 1.4GHz, 2GB Ram

This is the main problem, the Xcode needs 2GB+ itself, and there are others applications and processes running in foreground and background.

I have 3GHz C2D, 4GB RAM, still at times it hangs at times :(

So, either you need to upgrade the hardware or degrade the Xcode version.

EDIT:

As you have Macbook air, you cant upgrade the RAM which is soldered to the motherboard.
