Purely anecdotal - i3 + picom idles around 350MB while tiling wayland compositors (sway/hyprland) idle closer to 500MB

  Also from the tiling family of WMs, dwm clocks in at just below 150MB virtual.

  Interestingly my sway is clocking in at 131mb resident set size. This actually surprises me, I have three screens, and a fair few applications open..
