This is nonsense. I use NetBeans 3.5.1 with j2sdk1.4.2, and I rarely restart it (manually or through a crash) more than one a week. Right now it has been running for over three weeks fine. The speed issue is relative, what is slow? NetBeans 3.5.x version was primarily improvements to performance in the IDE, now it is very fast and responsive. I have never had any problems with speed on this version of NetBeans. (Unless you choose to turn on every single plug in, and try experimenting with everyone at once, ... eclipse users complain about poor performance under these conditions as well).
Oh, and to have a jab, didn't IBM try to announce Eclipse as the first open source true Java IDE? NetBeans was open source a good year or two before Eclipse, and Eclipse isn't 100% java!! It is an interesting reflection between Sun and IBM, Sun focus' more on technical issues and IBM more on marketing. Nonetheless it is great the two opensource IDEs exist to encourage competition between the two camps. Mick.
