I ran into the "Juno is ridiculously slow" thing myself (mentioned it just yesterday here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4488005).

Running Juno on my work laptop (a recent ThinkPad i5 system) is close to unusably slow while 3.8 runs great (for a Java UI-heavy app).

Hopefully this helps sort things out (though donating time of Google engineers might be a better practical solution). In any case, I think I'll stick with Sublime Text 2 for Android development when doing anything other than on-device debugging.



The community edition of IntelliJ makes a great Android development environment and is free. I can't imagine doing Android dev in a straight text editor.


I love IntelliJ, but I keep coming back to Eclipse because of all the plugins available for it. I would love to see IntelliJ somehow build the 3rd-party community of plugin developers.


What plugins do you use? Is this for Android?


I thought there already is android-sdk integration in IntelliJ


There is. It doesn't have all the features of Eclipse for Android but it's everything you need. I haven't touched Eclipse so far.
