I don't use either Eclipse or Netbeans though. I don't have much feedback on how well it works under heavy load in a production environment other than it has a problem on FreeBSD 4.x (which there is a patch for). I believe there were some folks using it successfully in production on 5.x/amd64, although there are a couple of gotchas with the build on amd64 at the moment. Just remember this is patchset 1, its bound to have a few rough edges. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
