Depending on Netbeans bundle (it is divided into at least 3 package)
- Netbeans Java SE (this is very light), I use this one :)
- Netbeans Java (this is moderate, and have all those Java EE things)
- Netbeans All (this one is heavy, so if you are using all those
features, it is better to use the either one of the above), this one
incude C/C++, Grail, PHP, etc

So if you choose the right package, it is a pleasant to develop in
Netbeans. Besides, since ver 5 (If my memory correct), Netbeans is
using lazy loading a lot, so any features that you are not using will
not be started, so startup is quite fast.

Cheers
