Is it because the CPU is used less so takes less juice? Nice article though. KDE is really bloated and the Kubuntu team is quite small. -Andy On Tue, Mar 9, 2010 at 1:40 PM, Glen Bizeau gbiz...@gmail.com wrote: I especially like the little list at the bottom http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/KDE-a-resource-hog-949634.html ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktophttps://launchpad.net/%7Elubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktophttps://launchpad.net/%7Elubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktophttps://launchpad.net/%7Elubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktophttps://launchpad.net/%7Elubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

If you look on phoronix (the original test) it said 0.2 Watts difference between the desktops. This is nothing. Last but not least I am very sceptical about this test. There is no processlist neither does it mention which apps they test under lxde and which under xfce or kde. Don't forget KDE uses nepomuk for search indexes. If this runs (@ 2 GB RAM you have plenty to use and it won't stop unless CPU is running out of ressources) it needs more memory. I would advice anyone doing tests on there own. (I will do such a thing this week and release it on my blog) All in all don't believe any test you didn't pay for. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
