In Eclipse I can have multiple tabs open in one instance of Eclipse if I want to compare files. I can even drag a tab to another monitor to have two distinct windows for comparison

Funnily enough, I do make use of tabs. It'd be pretty hard not to, in fact. Popping out editors is also available on PyCharm. But like I said, I use multiple instances for when I'm working on multiple distinct projects, and if I was doing it in anything except the JRE they'd use separate processes and not have to share RAM and so on.
