    dbeaver is a huge PITA to use. it is based on eclipse, that alone should be enough to tell how bloated this app is. It just isn't anything compared to the lightness and ease of use of sequel pro.

    I used DBeaver for a while, and I think it is by far the best one I used on the Linux platform, versatile, easy, and quick auto-completion, etc.
