Bodhi Linux 4.2.0 a light distro based on Ubuntu 16.04

Bodhi Linux 4.2.0 was announced on 31st May 2017 and I  decided to try it compare how light it is compared to Ubuntu 16.04.

I was impressed with the memory used on booting to the Desktop:
~$ free -m
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:           1706         160        1185           9         360        1378
Swap:          1023           0        1023

I was also impressed with the memory used with 3 Tabs open on Midori Browser:

~$ free -m

              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available

Mem:           1706         565         704          19         436         960

Swap:          1023           0        1023

Unfortunately Google does not support Midori Browser and the New Post Page refused to open on Blogger.

I installed Chromium Browser from Bodhi AppCenter and using it now with 4 Tabs open:

$ free -m

              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available

Mem:           1706        1008         135          23         561         505

Swap:          1023           0        1023

Although the Blogger New Post page refused to open gmail opens but complains of unsupported Browser but mail  functions work.

I am happy  with Bodhi  Linux 4.2.0 performance.

I could also edit this page on Midori Browser. It works.
