Personally I've been using IDEA since version 11, always on Linux, and from my view it's on the contrary quite faster than Eclipse, with a maven support that is not riddled with bugs.

Version 11 was as far as I'm concerned actually much cleaner and nicer than Eclipse ever was, and with version 12, the darkula theme is simply amazing: if I had to go back to work with Eclipse, the first I'd need would be to find a theme for it as close as possible as that theme.

P.S. for the cost part of IDEA that has been mentioned previously in the discussion, for those of you who work on Open Source projects, there's the Open Source Project License which gives you access to the full IDEA for free (same applies for Classroom License).

I've always used Eclipse and am currently using Juno. The Maven support got
much better, but other stupid things seem to have "broke." For example,
switching tabs into the XML editor (or pom editor) seems to require
calculating Pi to 10 million digits each time. Actually, I think there is a
memory leak somewhere and its just a GC going off, I should load it in
VisualVM and see. There are other annoying things about Eclipse with
respect to settings, but they can usually be "fixed" by editing some file
in the .settings directory.

Tried IntelliJ once and it was terribly slow (and looked a bit ugly on
Linux)... maybe I should try 12?

At the end of the day... anything's better than vim/emacs :-)
