Looking for good Java IDE for Mac OS X

I know several popular IDE are written in Java and therefore run on Mac OS X (e.g. JBuilder, IntelliJ, NetBean, Eclipse), however, most of them don't integrate well with Aqua and run very slowly on my iBook 500mhz G3. Just wondering if there are any suggestion out there for a speedy and Aqua-friendly Java IDE.

    CodeWarrior. However, it's pricey and may be overkill for what you need to do. I've used NetBeans and it's fairly nice though it is slow and feels like a Windows app. But on the other hand, it's free and gets the job done.

    I thought CodeWarrior is mainly a C/C++ tool.

    I use Apple's Xcode. There's one called BlueJ as well which is multi-platform so its probably written in Java but I'm not sure.
