Re: What Puts the Bloat in Mandrake 8.1



I think that under these conditions, KDE should be used as the desktop
environment - as most KDE apps share tremendous amounts of code (see
kdeinit), then loading the kicker and kwin should produce very slight
overhead, in comaprison with GNOME's panel and window manager which, while
definetly lighter then their KDE counterparts still use secluded code which
mostly won't be shared with GNOME apps.
