Thanks. I am testing XFCE desktop for now.

A brief comment on XFCE experience. The starting size of Xorg process
under XFCE is ~100-130 MB, but after 10 days of usage with mostly
Firefox & terminal windows (multiple windows for each app, and sometimes
pdf viewer [atril]) it grew to 270-300 MB.  I have some data collected
by xrestop, ps, if you want it. Let me know what kind of data would
help.

In a prior session where I was still using LibreOFfice (again, with
multiple windows, but nothing is a huge document or complicated doc with
lots of graphics), the memory usage grew to over 800 MB usage. And
xrestop indicated libreoffice was consuming nearly 200 MB of pixmap
memory just before I closed it!

Any direction to help narrow down the source of large memory consumption
would be appreciated.
