I just checked Xcode's behaviour regarding this "feature". Instead of waiting until termination and then pasting the output in the current window, it pastes program output instantaneously. I think this is favourable over TM's behaviour (and the fact that it doesn't crash).
The actual problem is not the insertion of text -- it's TextMate's reparsing of the whole file afterwards. Its scoping system needs to do it, whereas Xcode's syntax highlighting (which is also a few orders of magnitude less complex/powerful) can often get away with only reparsing what's on the screen right now.
TM is slow when processing very large files. It's a known problem (although not that important if you ask me).
