I'm thinking of upgrading my Mac OS X to 10.3 (Panther) but I want to make
sure Eclipse runs properly first.

Anyone that has tried Eclipse on Panther?

Yes, I'm running Eclipse on Panther most of the time now (90%) and it
appears to be more robust and faster than running it on Jaguar. There are
still some minor issues, most of them purely cosmetic.

I recommend Eclipse M4 or M5 with Panther.

I use Eclipse3 regularly, and am pretty happy with it. I just upgraded
to 3.0M5 and have found an annoying cosmetic bug (it is eating the first
error message on some of my projects), but the new features are cool
enough for it to be worth it.

The only major gripe I have at this time is cmd_space speed. I find
that on my Ti/667, it takes way too long to return from

import java.awt.<cmd_space>

They have improved the response time greatly in recent releases, but I
encourage everyone who sees the same problem to check out bugs

36732 Performance problems on Mac - slow appearance of cmd-space
results

42264 [Outline] Show Outline popup very slow

42480 JOGL method popups extremely slow; likely now SWT issue

and vote for those that happen to you. (Also comment if they do not
apply - anything to make it easier for the SWT and Mac folks to fix
these is a good, good thing.)
