OK perhaps for the memory, I also have performance concerns. That is, I want as much system resources as possible, available to the applications, and not consumed by the OS user interface. This is why I use Lubuntu.
I agree with you on that but compton is very light on resources. My Lubuntu machine is 10+ years old and it runs full compton effects (transparencies, drop shadows, menu fades) without a blip. It uses only 1-2 MBs of ram. I think once I saw it hit 3 MBs *gasp*. It never registers anything on the processor.
