I know this question has risen many times. But even then.
Which OS/DE do you recommend for pure performance I hav a machine which I wont use daily and usually makes it do very CPU heavy process'. So I need a OS/DE built for speed. Ubuntu 12.04 wont fit the bill cuz of unity.
Is using a server install and a light DE(XFCE) my best bet ?
I know arch and gentoo and all are great for this but I just dont have the time as I am a student ? An recommendation which uses ubuntu as its base would be nice as I am used to it.
Ohh BTW whats your opinion on MATE ? As I love the "old" gnome (as in 2.0)..
Also, If there is a guide to customize an install to make it as performance oriented as BackTrack that would be great!
Thanks!
