Too much time is wasted fixing or working around the many many CPU problems. This is just not an effective development environment anymore
I've used Eclipse on Ubuntu (Karmic - Maverick) for 18+ months now, on
openSuSE 10.x for 30 months before that, and on Windows off and on for 6
years (occasionally even today, though I eschew that sort of thing).
I've use Eclipse Europa through Helios except for Ganymede (which I
never liked).
I've used Subversion in the flavors of Subclipse (Ubuntu) and Subversive
(on openSuSE). I'm presently using Git (but not EGit), but at home I use
Subversion/Subclipse.
Eclipse has been my main IDE, so I run it all the hours of my workday.
At home I also run it on Lucid whenever I do work there.
Most of my Linux-hosted work has been on Intel i5 processors with 8Gb of
memory. I left openSuSE running 32-bit, but I've always run 64-bit on
Ubuntu. I've always run GNOME.
(I've been running Natty for 3 months, but only as an
Apache/MySQL/Mongo/Tomcat/Git back-end server with no GNOME, so I'm not
running Eclipse there.)
I don't do Ruby/Rails. I do Java, JEE, web applications, Android and
dabbled in BlackBerry.
I have not ever experienced any of the problems you mention including
the bug in the link you referenced.

There's always the possibility that this is specific to the RadRails
plug-in you mention, or the New Wave theme mentioned in the Ubuntu bug.
Not using either of them, I generally don't see this issue.
