Personally, I think that intellij.com's Idea IDE is the best I have used.
It lacks certain features (such as automatical rmic execution), but it has
the most comprehensive refactoring capabilities, which are very powerful.

Unfortunately, I have found that none of the IDEs I have tried implement "make"
functionality correctly and this is my biggest gripe. They recompile classes
needlessly and fail to recompile some that should be. Idea seems to be better
in this regard than JBuilder. A second gripe is resource consumption, and Idea
is nearly as big a resource hog as JBuilder.

A solution to the "make" problem is to use Ant, which is semi-integrated into Idea.

Don't know how to solve the resource problem.

I have yet to find an IDE that implements a useful visual Java3D builder.
Anyone seen such a thing?
