I think this was the test I vaguely remembered. Anyway, such a test probably doesn't really say much. https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubu-1

  Interesting,I can't find the link where I seen a benchmmark where KDE used less RAM then XFCE and Gnome3 ,it may differ for different people since Gnome is leaking memory for some people but I also seen reports of plasma leaking(it seems to be more rare) I am running an older version of KDE and my plasma uses less then 230MB in total(including shared memory)where only one instance of Chrome uses 450Mb and Xorg uses more then plasma for me (it may differ for other versions and configurations)
