Not unless you want vague recollections from when I was a still a wet behind the ears distro hopper or comparisons done on a K6-2 box running 32bit Debian Jessie, no.Do you recall any distros where you saw JWM consuming less RAM?
I was referring to installed size on disk, which likely includes a bunch of irrelevant cruft and does not account for things like shared library usage or X resources. It's usually a fair approximation of the size and complexity of the codebase though, and frankly I really don't care enough to quibble over a few meg used by the WM when the system uses 60+ at the CLI already, at least not on hardware made in the last 20 years.Maybe I misinterpreted 1/5 the size as meaning RAM vs drive storage size.
...Helpfully cropped to omit the parts which would indicate resident memory size vs. shared libraries.Image showing memory usage with each windows manager:
