The biggest thing for me, is just stuff I don't use or ever see me |
| 15 |
needing. At one point, can't recall version, KDE4 was a bit of a memory |
| 16 |
hog. It seems they have cleaned that up a lot since tho. Even on my |
| 17 |
old rig which had 3GBs of ram and KDE3, it wasn't to bad on memory. CPU |
| 18 |
wise tho, I'd hate to run KDE4 on my old rig. It is just to slow for |
| 19 |
KDE4. |
