There are a boatload of non-GTK or GNOME affiliated terminal emulators. I can recommend alacritty for instance.

The choice of distro makes almost no difference w.r.t. performance on old hardware, as long as it's still supported. The only (real but small) difference is between desktop environments and their choice of default apps (eg. file manage
