Hi to everyone!
A simple question: how much is lightweight TDE in comparison with LXDE, LXQT and XFCE? Is
it, perhaps, a middleweight? If it can be of interest, here is a discussion about
''lightness''.

For what it's worth, my experience running TDE on a potato (laptop built in
2008, 2GB RAM, Athlon64x2 CPU) is that it's light and responsive. Total
RAM usage on that system immediately after entering X was <300MB the
last time I checked. It's running Gentoo without a display manager, which
may reduce the amount of required RAM a bit.
