Visual Studio is the definitive C/C++ development environment (for Microsoft only, of course).

Eclipse tries to imitate it but only succeeds for Java, and it uses more memory and CPU time to do it.

On Windows I wouldn't use anything but Visual Studio for C work.

This is my opinion, but it's an informed opinion.

You might want to have a look at the new Europa (3.3) version of Eclipse. It seems to be a lot lighter and faster.
