If I'm not completely wrong, Eclipse's search is powered by Lucene. On small projects you won't notice a great difference, but on larger projects an indexed search is a great difference.

Does the ctags plugin work for other languages as well, e.g. python, ruby, javascript?

Yes to all three; about 34 languages in totals.

BTW, ctags is a separate command-line tool. Any *nix has it, it is available for Win too.
