TinyWM the lightest of all window managers and desktop environments.

x11-wm/ittywm is lighter, though it's forked off of tinywm. Its extra lightness is due to it being remade in libxcb.

ittywm uses about 2.4MB in Residential memory compared to TinyWM which uses about 3.4MB. Got this statistic using the top command. This stat is in Residential memory and in 2022, as it's uncertain the metric used in that chart.
