I've been working on the property sheet heavily, which means a lot of restarting NetBeans. The default layout on startup is the form editor, with component inspector and property sheet on the right, so I can test some focus behavior. Each time I restart NetBeans, the component inspector is a few pixels taller and the property sheet is a few pixels shorter. It takes 10-15 restarts to really notice it, but eventually the property sheet disappears - there is just the divider at the bottom of the screen. Probably it is some kind of rounding error - are you using percentages or absolute coordinates when you store the winsys?
Yes, it is about storing of splits. They are stored in relative numbers. But I guess the real problem is that during the startup the toolbar (menubar) components are not constructed properly, thus the height of the window are changes.... if this issue is experienced only in splits which are oriented horizontaly, it is caused by that. There is already issue which should rewrite the toolbar in order to get full control over its GUI, and thus able to compute the correct size, at startup.
Well, if we don't rewrite the toolbar stuff for 4.0, it is possible to hack it and save the current toolbar height on shutdown.

maybe this one was fixed by one of my fixes today?

Reassigning to Milos and closing - appears to have been the same issue.
