Hi All.
I use Ubuntu Hardy Heron, with KDE3.5, Gnome(w/ubuntu studio) and IceWM. I noticed that while my gnome with a rather over customised upper pannel hangs a lot for even simple operations, my KDE which is equally customised, is sleek and fast.
Though KDE uses more RAM, it is much more responsive and polished than Gnome. I notice that Firefox and terminal, along with appearence, cause my gnome to hang a lot. But I can use the same on KDE without trouble.
Is this an indicator that Gnome really IS loosing it ? KDE is beating gnome in every single way, from unifying themes, looking good, providing complex functionality to even performance. Why is it so ? KDE4 may be buggy and all that, but to me, KDE3.5 looks really hot at the moment.
