[PlanetCCRMA] Gnome vs. KDE - Operability within the confines of Planet CCRMA

[Matt Marian]

Hi Roy,

no flame bait here either :-)
Strictly speaking from the practical side of being a user and not a 
developer. I have and do use both and even xfce4 . . I have not seen any 
problems using any one of them , as far as performance is concerned. 
Maybe I should say no perceptible issues. 
I have not googled this , but one would imagine studies out there 
documenting latency , memory allocation, cpu cycles, screen refresh etc 
of each desktop/window manager over the other.  I have encounted no 
issues using either. but that's just me and I could be wrong.
Cheers,
Matt
 
have fun & make music.
