You could try Blackbox http://blackbox.alug.org/. It is small
(some 14k lines of code; less than half wmaker's executable size),
written for minimal resource usage and maximum speed (definitely the
most responsive wm on my lowly 28MHz box), and all this is quite
astonishing, considering that it's written in C++. And, well, I almost
fell off my chair laughing when I loaded the Lunar_Daemon theme :)
