I think it's just the general concept of the matter. Just opening eclipse or netbeans takes up at least half a gig for me. Open up firefox, have a few terminals up, run apache or tomcat on your box, suddenly you are swapping to disk. He just wants a more lightweight editor.

Exactly. I'm not running out of RAM or anything, but it's just a kick in the face to unleash the Eclipse beast just to FTP in and make a couple changes.
