Xfce It's been nearly 18 months since the last major Xfce release - Xfce 4.4, to be exact. Xfce 4.6 was supposed to go final this month, but the Xfce team didn't meet the deadline. Instead, they released the first alpha release of Xfce 4.6, and Phoronix summarises the most important changes, including a number of screenshots.

"It's known that GNOME and KDE3 are resource hogs


uh, not really true. Gnome and KDE3 have more features, therefore use more resources. One man's bloat is another man's useful feature.

Completely agree, and I was surprised to find that when I tried XFCE 4.4.2 it wasn't any faster or responsive than KDE 3.5.8.
