Re: How to know applications are lightweight or not?

 

This is an interesting topic. I really don't know how to recognize them
before testing them. But looking to other so called "lightweight"
distributions and there default applications would be one way to do
this. Another one would be looking at the homepages of the different
applications and trying to find the system requirements for this app.
Lastly but not least Blogs like ubuntu geek have some app tips and also
write about lightweight applications.

Hope this helps ;)
