Um,
I have been trying to lighten the load on my PIII 600MHz w/ 512MB RAM.
So for starters I went back from KDM to XDM.
From kwrite to nedit
From OpenOffice 1.0.3 to OpenOffice 1.1
and From Mozilla to Thunderbird and Firebird
But the best improvement came from moving from KDE to XFCE
and finally the 2.6test2 kernel doesn't seem to have affected
performance at all.
I'm so pleased to be able to say "I told you so." Except, of course,
that I *didn't* told you so, but would have if you'd asked me. XFCE
3 does indeed blaze over against GNOME and KDE. For my money, the
lost feechurs and eye canddy are a fair trade for better performance.
Just my opinion, natcherly, worth whatcha paid for it.

Xfce4 rc2 is pretty fabulous. They have a script that downloads,
compiles and installs is for you.
