Welcome to the fat world of Java. ;)  Eclipse is actually already one of the more efficient Java apps, since it uses SWT, which delegates to native GUI libraries. 

For anyone developing in Java, I'd recommend a 1GB workstation.

My vote goes to Eclipse. Third party plugins rocks specially PyDev. I'm hoping that they could fix performance issues though. I can feel my 512MB linux box start to cough when Eclipse is loaded.
