how CPU intensive is Hyprland compared to Gnome and Plasma?

for Hyprland, assume a minimal yet complete setup with the typical daemons you'd get from wiki.hypr.land/Useful-Utilities
>>
I don't know
>>
>>106918951
Hovering at around 20% CPU usage on a thinkpad x230 right now. I'm also using a second monitor and have lots of taps open for research. Quite light actually.
Before you ask, it's also using almost 5 GiB of RAM.
>>
>>106918951
Almost everything that could be intensive in hyprland is hardware accelerated (GPU), considering there's no shell it should be markedly lighter on CPU
>>
>>106918951
vaxry doesnt think performance matters nowadays
displaying the wallpaper used 500mb of memory because "unused ram is wasted ram"
>>
>>106919007
Me neither

It's about the same if you have all the useless effects.

nu-/g/ is fucking retarded
>>
>>106918951
Battery life on my laptop was the same between a properly configured hyprland and KDE. We can assume it's in the same ballpark. As long as you use UWS and ags based bars you're going to be fine. Currently using it on my main rig and I have no problems.

i used to know, but i've forgotten

Its the best looking vm thag doesnt havd telemetry or javascript. It uses like 1gb of ram which you cant demand less than that unless you're willing to compile the kernel.
>>
>>106923973
i wrote it down somewhere, but i can't find the note
>>
I like how Hyprland's logo is clearly a noose. What are they thinking?
>>
>>106921442
>>20% CPU
On a third gen i5.
>5 Gig of RAM
With all the other stuff I got running.
Considering hyprland is hyped as being more resource intensive than the new borderlands, it's pretty good.
>>
>>106924609
They are nazis, so of course the logo has been designed to express their transphobia covertly. If you want a light window manager that just works and has been designed by an actual ally rather than fascists just use Openbox.
>>
>>106918951
fascist bloatware piece of shit
just use GNOME
>>
>>106919103
kek, that's anything but light. Fedora Plasma is idling at 1% CPU and 2.5GB RAM on my Asus FX505DT laptop.
>>
>>106918951
Use case?
>>
>>106926635
You can customize anything. I can make waybar icons on the bar and make them larger with the scroll wheel if i wanted to. I can fade the transition to the next workspace with css too.
Also gnome sends telemetry to redhat and kde to steam.
>>

>gnome sends telemetry to redhat and kde to steam
Proof?
>>
>>106918951
does it still fuck with the UE Editor for some ungodly reason?
>>
>>106918951
Very fitting that it looks like a noose
>>
>>106918951
more cpu and gpu intensive.
on hardware from the past 2 decades barely significant.

>>106919862
unused ram = wasted ram.
i'm not sure why anyone would believe otherwise. you think those few gb of empty ram is beneficial to you in any way? cached data ram can be cleared in ms if something with priority needs it.

taking 500mb for a wallpaper is ridiculous though.
>>
>>106927354
>i'm not sure why anyone would believe otherwise. you think those few gb of empty ram is beneficial to you in any way? cached data ram can be cleared in ms if something with priority needs it.
didn't say otherwise, but there's a difference between caching and just hoarding 500mb for a fucking wallpaper that never gets freed
>>
>>106926652
hyprland sends telemetry to grok and im not even kidding
>>
they're about the same

installing rn

>>106927354
unused ram is ram available for when I need it, not for being hogged up by shitty software
>>
>>106928134
Why would elon musk care about hyprland users this is too schizo for even me.
>>
>>106929165
elon is all about efficiency and shit, why isn't he using hyprland?
>>
>>106929322
>elon is all about efficiency and shit,
Dragon uses javascript, html, css and other webshit for its controls. Elon doesn't give the slightest poopoo about efficiency but his addiction to jeets does show a fondness for shit.

if you care about this, just use Sway
it's actually fucking nice, very underrated WM. no one actually needs hyprland that much.
>>
>>106931213
hi drew

Why
>>
>>106918951
Fuck off to goymarchys trannycord and ask that question. We don't run gayland around here.
>>
>>106919103
I instaled hyprland with cachyos and I get 1.5gb of ram usage with nothing running. Meanwhile Windows 11 uses 4gb.
>>
>>106931310
vaxry, the dev of hyprland is hated by freedesktop and sway and the underlying software is ran by those people
hyprland was banned from wl-roots, the code base that these both have in common, for making fun of someone for aping out about getting being misgendered on hyprland discord server (I think he put "who/cares" as their pronouns)
sway used to be a bigger project than hyprland and more popular and when vaxry was getting cancelled people were supposed to move to using sway but that backfired. Hyprland is way bigger now despite so many notable linux people coming at the guy who was like 16 when he made hyprland
>>
>>106931371
Okay idc about that. Tell me about the performance differences
>>
>>106931382
no one who uses sway uses it because its a better project they use it because they hate vaxry
>>
>>106931310
Better engineered
>>
>>106931394
I use it because Hyprland would randomly crash. Also it definitely used more CPU at idle. Sway uses nothing.
>>
>>106931382
>Tell me about the performance differences
Hyprland is supposed to look nice, not be min-max performant.
>>
>>106931472
>Hyprland would randomly crash
config or hardware issue
>>
>>106926626
>1% CPU
On a Ryzen 7 3750H.
I'm on a i5 3320M.
>>
>>106919103
That even more than KDE lmao
>>
>>106932239
I was using a default config. All I was fucking doing was watching anime through mpv and the stupid thing would constantly lock up requiring a hard reset. Got tired of that and tried Sway and never had a problem. Didn't help that I tried asking the discord and they just laughed. They're not serious people. Sway seems like it is made by serious people at least. And it does work so there is that. Idgaf about sway specifically. I use whatever works.
>>
>>106932416
I have fucked around with a lot of shit on hyprland and never had it lock up. provided drivers and everything else are fine.
I tried sway but seemed more primitive in a sense, not as smooth. I like the small details for how windows move, the special workspace etc
>>
idk I use dwm

He has a bunch of shit open on an old-ass CPU. You dumb fucks. This post is bad. Sure. But it isn't running heavy. You can't tell how the environment is running by this post.
>>
>>106932256
No, it isn't. You don't know how much it uses, because you don't know his tabs or browser.
