Actually, I think its KDE thats bloated and resource hungry.
I have an AMD K6 350 with 64 megs of RAM,
give it KDE and netscape 6 and it goes so slowly I have
to check to make *certain* its not running Windows!
I think its something to do with the processes that KDE runs
to check for hung applications. Its just a hunch tho.
