Of course I don't memorize everything. I do memorize the things I use most often so that code completion is hardly necessary. This takes much longer to do when you have a crutch to lean on. I typically have my code on one monitor and documentation on another when dealing with something unfamiliar. I definitely agree with you on the Eclipse issue, though. It's just a bad IDE and people just keep using it. It's sort of like the IE of IDEs.
