Doug, I'm surprised you can go for 5 or 6 hours. It grinds to a halt for me in less than an hour. But I guess it depends on what you're doing (Java vs resources).
But I'll echo what you said: it's not that the IDE is generally slow, it's something else that is chewing up resources. It's not the emulator, as I can exit that and Eclipse is still the same. As people reported above, you can code all you like, but it seems that if you mess with the resource files, you're doomed.
