After a while with Mono, I'm eagerly awaiting DDT integrating 
with Dub and going back to Eclipse. It isn't that slow if your 
computer isn't. No, really. And there are things you can do to 
the initialization file that sometimes cuts the loading time down 
to something manageable. And while starting it can last you a 
lifetime on a bad day, unlike certain other editors that start 
instantly, it doesn't crash all the time.

Mono is... kinda meh. It's very nice when it works. It works most 
of the time. But when it doesn't it's like fighting the tides. 
It's not even Mono-D that is bad, it's the editor itself that 
sucks. Cascades of null pointer exceptions accompanied by popups 
that I don't know how to disable, sometimes following every 
single keystroke kills productivity. I don't even get how or why 
or when it resets.
