[ale] Window Managers for X

[John Allgood]

The load is distributed across multiple Xservers never more than fifty on
one server and most the load is from running firefox and thunderbird and
openoffice. My biggest concern would probably network load of using a
heavier window manager. Motif is very light in all regards.

That was going to be my next question.  MWM is not very big.  How will
E16 handle if 25+ instances are ran on one server?  Are we (ale) looking
at this problem correctly?  Are we thinking that you are looking for a
light weight WM that you'll be running only one instance of?  You'll be
running many instances of this WM one one system and I really don't
think _any_ eye candy is necessary.
