Akonadi configuration, desktop search,... extra libraries running in memory 
that doesn't need to be there. Expectations that KDE is not just a XWindows 
Manager, but the most aesthetically pleaseing, most configurable Desktop 
Environment complete with the best suite of briliantly designed and executed 
default apps that show off the suite of KDE / QT libraries in a way that no 
other environment has ever touched,ever.
