Re: Intersting Article

 

Well, in all fairness, KDE has a very specific architectural vision,
starting with things like plasma, etc, and it is not one that had been
focused on minimizing requirements.  For people that want those things
KDE offers, thats fine, and that does not seem like bloat to them, I am
sure.  I am however happy to see that the results of optimizing lxde can
be measured and validating in this kind of way.
