<p>Using Cachy since about two years now. Never had any stress with it. Maybe it's about the random combination of components, hardware, driver/firmware quality? If you've got a bad combo, it will always crap out at some point in time. But so do others, too. Just on different combinations.</p>

<p>IceWM i can understand. Fluxbox not so much, because always unstable in whichever option, with the ability to take the whole X-Session down, or crash the whole system.<p>That aside, how are they 'faster'? On some obsolete system with outdated graphics system maybe? On current systems with somewhat mature, but not bitrotten drivers it feels like the opposite of that. Memory usage maybe? Not really when you're mostly using apps which are pulling in the equivalent dependencies anyways, multiple times. If you like Oldschool KDE just use <a href="https://trinitydesktop.org/" rel="nofollow">https://trinitydesktop.org/</a> ? It feels like it flies at first, but then the thing about <i>pulling in the equivalent dependencies anyways</i> comes into play again.<p>So why, when you can lightly breeze the shit out of modern Plasma/KDE anyways?</p>

<p>> The idea that I need to have window decorations and the “GTK window decorations” configured separately is just …<p>Yah, well, I'm on Plasma/KDE and that idea enables me to <i>close apps by throwing my mouse on the right top corner and clicking</i> on that [X] there.<p>After having disabled the titlebar in FF itself <i>once</i> in "Customize Toolbar". 
It's the leftmost box on the underside, just uncheck it.<p>Not even in the settings Plasma/KDE has for that, too. There only "maximize" is activated.</p>

<p>Any SoC currently available does <i>not</i> use HBM for its unified memory. That's just stacked DRAM, wired somewhat more optimally because of shorter distances, making it able to go a little bit faster, and maybe wider. But not as massively wide as HBM is, with its load of many lanes. This may shift in the near future, in favor of more traditional stacking, cost/production-wise, vs. real HBM with massive speed improvements, at much higher costs.<p>That aside, ever heard of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAMM_(memory_module)" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAMM_(memory_module)</a> ?</p>

<p>That's called staggered spin-up. One does that for sets of HDDs, too.<p>Anyway, what is it good for? To not overload the PSU for one, because spin-up needs more energy, until it has reached it's intended range of RPM. (for fans & HDDs)<p>Another reason to spin-up high initially, to fall down to slower when <i>up</i>, is to overcome friction in the bearings, to get stuck things unstuck, and shake dust off. (for fans)</p>
