I downloaded Eclipse after reading about it in many places including slashdot and linux magazine.

It looks very nice so far.  It is exacly what I need for where I am in java development right now.  Reminds me of missing semicolons before I compile, but doesn't generate code automatically.  ANT and JUNIT are integrated and there is a PHP plug-in that I have yet to try.

Great PHP tip from the Twin Cities PHP mailing List:
mysql_unbuffered_query() can be a big help when you're pulling massive
result sets from MySQL.  With mysql_unbuffered_query(), you can query
the server and begin processing the results without the intermediate
step of loading them into memory first.

This is great for things like copying to a file or displaying huge
result sets.  You'll gain performance improvements and reduce memory
consumption!  But its not for every query - you'll tie up the MySQL
server through the duration of the query processing and you can't run
any further queries until you're finished.
