 Desktop Effects On Graphics Performance
« Thread Started on Mar 1, 2012, 1:40am »

If you've ever wondered why Xfce in SalineOS, here's some brain fodder. Although this tests Xfce4.8 I feel that 4.6 is probably about as fast compared to the others. (Just my opinion; looking forward to 4.8).
BTW, more or higher number is better in the benchmarks.

While it would seem from the number of viewers (19) that statistics of this sort are overrated. I find that the numbers are surprisingly close together. I would have expected a wider range. Thanks for the Info.
