Hi there, I use the mac on a daily basis and am also a full time developer.
I never actually navigate xcode using voice over but a set of keyboard shurtcuts to get to where I want help me accelerate the moving around the IDE. You should google xcode important shortcuts or xcode productivity shortcuts and learn them. I haven’t had the delay issue with navigating the editor itself. Are you using high Sierra? Their underlying engine is now metal 2 which makes it much snappier than sierra and preceding OSes. if you need any help, don’t hesitate to contact me off list.
