But which is the kindest to the system resources, sendmail or postfix?
Postfix, definitely.
exim uses even less. If you just want local delivery, then any of these MTA's will work out of the box without config. I used sendmail for many years and postfix for much longer. I now sometimes use exim. Once you want incoming mail then you need to read the docs and set them up. Exim is probably more configurable, but I'd say postfix can handle more load.
