When LibreOffice appeared on the stage, that was actually my first test back then: opening an existing ODT document I had written. It was already displayed incorrectly at the time.
CDE being heavier is probably mostly caused by its large functionality. After all, NsCDE is mostly an FVWM colour scheme, while CDE comes with all the bells and whistles.
I upgraded my OpenBSD machines a few hours ago, and I'm still not entirely sure whether I notice any obvious TCP speed improvement. Then again, they're not really high-load computers. Maybe people with a higher throughput will be amazed.
FreeBSD is not really curious about being as portable as possible, I think. And it is somewhat larger, indeed, so it's not quite as easy to support more platforms.

That might well be the case here. No, I don't try to win arguments on the internet. :-) Thank you.
