Intersting. I'd not realised that just about everything was derived from FVWM... I ran FVWM for almost 18 years - literally from the first stable release to a couple of years ago when I switched to XFCE.

Also, the chart mid-way shows XFCE needing more RAM then LXDE, but I find XFCE on the Raspberry Pi to be more responsive and usable than the default LXDE..
