As they have different properties, which is considered the best depends on
other considerations.

The VisualWorks one is probably the most featureful, but it's rather
clunky.

There is the one that's bundled with 3.3, that's the most convenient (if
you're using 3.3). But I don't think it handles namespaces (I hope I'm
wrong, but I don't see that it does).

More detail about your needs will help us give you a better answer :)
