KDE 4.4 is lighter than KDE 3.5 was, even with desktop effects enabled. The only time you will see it appear that KDE 4 is "heavy" is if you are loading the Qt3 libraries in addition to the Qt4 libraries, for instance by using KDE3 applications. I understand that some people still need Quanta or the old Kdevelop, but if you are not using KDE 3 applications (and therefore loading Qt3 libraries) then Qt4 is lighter than Qt3 was. > Or try one of the lighter-weight alternatives. > The issue applies to the alternatives as well, unless you can find a Qt3 alternative.
