I had the same feeling toward Eclipse, as it felt a monster when running 
on the computers of yesterday. Now, the CPU speeds and memory capacities 
are much better, and you can tune Eclipse to your heart's content.

I have run Eclipse on Mac OS X, Linux (several flavors) and Windows, and 
I'm pretty happy with the results. However, there is a hefty learning 
step to climb until one feels at home with the myriad of settings.

My old favorites were WordStar, nedit, Codewright, Smultron and kate, 
but they have all given way to Eclipse with CDT plug-in. With quite 
modern hardware (MacBook Pro of 2008), it runs well even in a virtual 
machine with Linux or Windows XP (no idea of newer windozes, however).

The CDT nag-machine is much more than bare syntax coloring, it quite 
well replaces lint, as well.
