Benchmarks "A lot of people has been asking me about some performance comparison for the vector graphics framework we have. Rendering polygons, especially when we're dealing with stroke, tends to be the most expensive rendering operation performed in vector graphics. I constructed a little test, which tests raw polygon rendering power of Qt and Cairo. For the test I used the latest Qt main branch, and the master branch from Cairo's Git repository."

I hope it works out. Qt really seems nice, and all the stuff it has is great. ( although I probably wouldn't like to use it until we had Java UI on Qt, Firefox with Qt UI and OpenOffice... I just like my system to feel all the same, not that it is Qts fault. )

But I just can't stand to use KDE... Gee.

I know there is a taste for everything and I know a lot of people who adore KDE's UI. I just plain hate it!

Perhaps someday we'll have something XfKde (as in the old name of Xfce, Cholesterol Free KDE). A simple interface, with some sort of CDE resemblance, fast and elegant, that does not get in your way.

Oh... and applications without tons of megs of gigs of buttons and docks and everything in the same screen. It just makes me sick only to look at a KDE window.

Hmmm I know I am being a bit unfair here. It is just an opinion... and I probably spoke too much already.

To each one, their preferred desktop.

no , you are not being unfair.

and i also share your taste !! that is why i use kde ;)

really , default kde is really "full" , but you can make it really minimalist. ( actually , compared to my kde, xfce is completly bloated ! )

if you want , i have screenshots to prove it ! ;)

with some sort of CDE resemblance

A someone who until recently had to work in CDE everyday, I can safely say the last thing in the world I want is a KDE more like CDE. CDE's looks are best used to scare small children and keep evil spirits out of your cubicle.
