Netbeans still needs performance improvement
I have been using Netbeans since 5.5.1.
Unfortunately you can not develop big applications without getting unbearable slow performance. It seems that when you have several projects open Netbeans becomes unresponsive.
My last project was a Web application with a GUI front end and Web front end using Richfaces. At the beginning switching to 6.1 was a blessing, but when the project grew, uff!! Now we are evaluating other development platform, because a simple test of a page sometimes takes up to 3 minutes just to show it up on a web browser.
Disappointment is the right word to describe it.
Development equipment:
Windows XP
2GB memory
Intel duo core 1.67ghz
120GB hd 7200rpm
