| As for the actual results, well, too bad. In fact I had been hoping,
| somewhat naively indeed, that such very stripped KDE would match Xfce like
| it did with the startup time. But the size of KDE's libraries is hard tob
| eat and with such stripped desktop there is not that much that'd take
| advantage of it. GNOME's huge number seems to be caused by running way
| too many processes - even panel applets are separate processes. This
| will have even worse impact later.
