What is the absolute lightest WM?

[NintendoTogepi]

Obviously this knocks out GNOME, KDE, XFCE, even some of the lighter ones like LXDE and ICEWM...so which is the absolute lightest WM?

Try evilwm. http://www.6809.org.uk/evilwm/

DWM, Ratpoison, antiWM, evilwm, probably something along those lines

I think that in terms of funtionality and simplicity JWM is pretty good and lightweight.
I personally like StumpWM.

Ratpoisons good ^^

TinyWM.

50kb - I win

I dare you to find anything less bloated

I think that 27kB is about the same as dwm.

But TinyWM is only about 8.5kB, so it easily beats both FWE and dwm.

Okay what is the lightest one that is still pretty usable? (as in JWM/Fluxbox/Openbox etc.)

Do you want a tiling window manager? "Usable" is pretty vague.
