Just as additional information. I also do have problems with the older Eclipse 3.7.2 in combination with ADT. ADT leaks memory pretty badly on my development machine and brings it to a complete halt after a few hours of development and debugging. This affects just about anything. Slow XML editors, slow overall performance of my PC. I filed a bug report a while ago and I was told to profile the Eclipse process with some tool that does not work on my machine. So basically I have no clue how to help them spot that problem and while that bug is still there I have to restart Eclipse multiple times a day by killing its process and launching it with the "-clean" parameter. It's awesome.
Anyway, ADT is much much worse on Eclipse Juno. There it's just a matter of a few minutes until I have to restart Eclipse. That's why I switched back.
