KDE4 just too slow

[Eduardo Robles]

KDE 4.0.0 uses more ram than KDE 3.5.8 in my system. I installed exmap and
sorted by Effective Resident memory usage column, and launched
kmix,konsole,konqueror with two tabs,ksnapshot,klipper and kwrite. Both
without composite activated and within Kubuntu Gutsy freshly started in a
machine with 900Mb of RAM and no swap usage. The result: total memory usage
with KDE 3.5.8 is 123Mb, and with KDE 4.0.0 is 161Mb.


I used the mentioned applications to do a similar test to the one done in
[1].
