Crunchbang++ vs. BunsenLabs: Lightweight rivals, based on OpenBox and Debian 12
- cheaprentalyeti 3y agoI've never used crunchbang++, but I've used bunsen labs' official version and also run a couple devuan/bunsenlabs hybrids made by adding the repository to devuan. I think I want to try the last edition of crunchbang on some of my old machines, just to see how much memory it was taking up back then. I remember that it was less than the modern editions, but I don't remember how much less.
- lproven 3y ago[Author/poster here] I ran up the last Ubuntu-based version in a VM and I was surprised to note that it took about the same RAM at idle... But that was running from the ISO, not installed, so it is maybe an unfair comparison. It is a smaller download and I think it would be a smaller install.
