Reply To: antiX core 19.2 64 bit with runit

macondo, it’s pretty clear by what you just shared that you probably have a system with “approximately” 8 GB, of which 7.68 GB is usable for the user interface as shown in your inxi output. That is reasonably similar to the Dell Inspiron 5558 laptop I’m using right now. I see some components have different manufacturers but a few of the peripheral interfaces are identical to the ones my commodity hardware uses.

Similarly, you’re using less than 10% of the available memory; that’s also typical to my usage. I find that my hardware, which has four cores.
When I use a full-featured desktop like the Fedora 32 Xfce I happen to be on, the number doubles – I’m at just over 19% memory usage on Fedora 32 Xfce with two tabs open in Firefox 77.0.1, xfce4-terminal with htop; so this desktop is more than twice as heavy as a tight, efficient antiX window manager configuration. Fedora 32 runs fine, but I definitely prefer antiX and MX, and use them much more often than the other distributions that I also test.
