Couple points:
Generally client VM implementation is quicker to start up and uses less
memory, very good for client gui applications. However if you have
Eclipse up all day.... maybe the speed improvement would be beneficial.
However...
Most importantly, Apple doesn't seem to have a server JVM.
try
java -server -version
Notice that the Client VM string is shown. If this is wrong, someone
please tell me!

FYI,
Got this article today in JDJ newsletter. May be of interest.

I did not realize that there are client and server jvm's to choose
from when java apps are launched and that the server JVM is the
fastest jvm, so I checked the OS X Server jvm.cfg file in
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Home/lib
to find that the server jvm (listed first in the file is the default
for java apps on OS X Server which is good, HOWEVER in the same
location on my regular OS X dev machine the default jvm is the SLOWER
client jvm.
You can easily change this on your OS X client (not Server) by
replacing jvm.cfg with a copy of server_jvm.cfg (which can be found in
the same directory). This might make a difference to the performance
of java applications such as Eclipse for those who are interested. If
you find that it does, let us know.
I hope this is of interest to the list
