Plasma has been more efficient than XFCE for over three years now.

I don't know which is technically snappier, but ram not being used does not equal snappier performance.

I think power draw is a better measurement for efficiency.

Making it more practical. Most people have more RAM than they need, but everyone is limited by battery capacity on laptops.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
