    Everything’s about perspective… maybe GNOME became SO bloated that KDE now seems very light. :P

      Look on phoronix for benchmarks. Plasma consumes less RAM and CPU than even XFCE.

        Hold on, I was kind of joking, I’m not saying KDE is slow. GNOME for sure is slow as hell.

          All good, but I think it’s really often a misconception that a DE like KDE, which is big and brings tons of features, must be more ressource intensive than a (feature wise) smaller DE. Which, as the benchmarks show, is surprisingly not the case.
