I've stopped using Gnome because, every time I open a new window in Pd, Gnome frets for a second or 2 before showing it. I recommend the much faster and lighter "FVWM2" instead.
For day-to-day use, I'm still quite happy with blackbox, but just for fun I recently tried sWM from http://www.small-window-manager.de
This is a very super-nano-mini-tiny window-manager, but with enough features to get used to it for longer. It surely would make a great window-manager for performances. I was really surprised, that things felt faster using sWM. It doesn't have a real config file, everything is configured at compile time.
- From the README:
"sWM needs a minimum of 13840 bytes on your harddisk, depending on your selected features and configuration."
Here is my "ls -l": enlightenment: 811536 fvwm2: 325724 blackbox: 163716 sWM: 12388
Now, that's small ;)
