I don't care and btw. I don't claim that JWM is a DE. The discussion
started about "speed". I don't think it was about a quick startup, but
about a "fast" GUI performance. After a while "lightness" in the sense
of "how much RAM" is needed for the WM/DE became the topic.
It's important to distinguish the RAM space of a WM that only does
handle windows, with a DE where already the desktop is a comfortable
file manager, at least to take care that the lightweight WM does need
more additional things that will need additional RAM.
