I'm no eclipse fan but I dont recall it being slow in anything other
than start up : typical for a Java app but on a modern machine the
facilities it brings to programming with complex class hierarchies
certainly offsets that. Emacs cant come close to it for many commonplace
requirements these days (I wont list them again and am aware most Emacs
users, myself included,  dont really need or want these things).
