Eclipse isn't slow when using it. Well, not really any appreciable
amount slower than any other dekstop GUI editor. And its certainly a lot
more powerful than most if you are a programmer dealing with multiple
languages or wanting a common look and feel IDE for all projects. Mixed
mode in debian is kind of ok with nxhtml, but Java is nigh on impossible
(well, hard work - what is the status with JDEE now?), python is a
confusing mess (multiple python modes floating around) : of course the
benefits of Eclipse also introduce some overheads but not ones I feel
are detrimental to any development process.
