I am currently using Windows 10 LTSC (the newest version) and after some basic configuration it is INSANE how responsive it is. It boots basically instantly and apps launch instantaneously. I hand the laptop to random people and they are always amazed and how well it works. This is on a decently fast Dell XPS laptop but nothing insane. All the crap has been stripped out.
Seriously recommend trying it out - more responsive than any OS I have ever used - even a lean running Ubuntu or OSX
If you think that's responsive you haven't seen my XFCE setup.
I'd like to see it. I'm running XFCE now, I wouldn't call it slow but it's not quite as snappy as I'd like it to be.
Turn off composition (if Xfce allows you to, like KDE does). Then drag a window around your screen on a high framerate monitor and feel the difference.
