Its a matter of tradeoffs.

Almost all Java applications are elephants.
Jbuilder is the worse of them. Its huge, it sucks up 200M of memory, it has
more memory leaks than my lisp code has parenthesis.
But its the best Java IDE I know (well almost). The only one that debugs JSP
(which I do on daily basis). 
And it works on every OS in the company.

For that, speed seems like a minor issue.
