I find KDE perfectly usable on a PIII 600 with Slack12, so almost any
desktop should be OK.
That said, Enlightenment can be a bit lighter than Xfce, depending on how
much of the effects suite is enabled.
Also consider Windowmaker (a bit lighter still) or fvwm-crystal
(light, good-looking, and simple to use).
