From the little I know, Qt4 would actually be faster if the apps were not more heavyweight themselves. Or at least that&#39;s what I&#39;ve heard around the time it was introduced. There are also other advantages like better rendering when resizing windows and multithreaded performance.<div>

I guess the only way to know for sure if memory usage is lower, and performance is better, is to port parts of the code and test. I can&#39;t seem to find benchmarks but KDE 4 now is quite slimmer than what it used to be, even though it still uses more memory than KDE 3/Trinity.</div>

Question is in subj of the message.<br>
Because as for me all (i mean, all, not only kde4)  qt4 apps are much<br>
slower then they were on qt3. So, what are advantages of migration?<br>
