" Will DesktopX slow down my system?
DesktopX itself won´t. Think of DesktopX as a new way of creating things. In itself, it has little overhead. You can run DesktopX on a Pentium 2-233Mhz machine without a problem. Objects and themes, on the other hand, can use little or lots of resources, CPU, memory, etc. depending on what they do. A simple object that checks your email status can be run without a problem on any system. On the other hand, an object that does full motion video or 3D rendering would be much more intensive.
From a purely technical point of view, DesktopX is more like a programming language. C++, for instance, doesn´t have overhead in itself. There are programs written with it that use little in resources and ones that use a lot."
bon point là dessus
