Heavyweight in the sense of resources required, or complexity, or what?

I got the impression that KDE was the one that everyone used.

Which window manager most closely approximates the GUI of traditional
UNIX workstations?

Is it possible to install multiple X servers on the same machine so that
one can fire up whichever one strikes one's fancy at a given time?



In the sense of resource usage is what I mean when I say heavy weight. While KDE is quite popular, there are probly (litterally) hundreds of window managers that will run under X, so saying "Everyone uses N window manager" is going to be patently false.

You'll only need one X server - what you're looking at having multiple versions of is the window manager. That's what runs over top of X to provide the style.
