Re^6: Perl in the Enterprise

Well, I've installed Eclipse once, with EPIC, I launched it, and waited... waited... waited... Then it appeared. I dug around a bit, and decided that it's definetely too big, too slow for me (besides the fact that it sucks up 250MB or RAM). So I have absolutely no idea of what it may bring to the Java developer :)

Yeah - it's not exactly light weight :-)

IntelliJ is considerably snappier and has some demo movies if you're interested.

I'll have a look. However intelliJ has another kind of fatal flaw : it's not free (as in speech). I'm a free software purist, you know :-)	[reply]

Well, I've seen the demos and it's impressive. It would be really great to have such features with Perl or any other language actually.	[reply]
