There is a list of Emacs implementations in the Gentoo wiki: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Emacs/Emacs-like_editors I also did a comparision of small Emacsen several years ago: https://bugs.gentoo.org/384451 (especially, see the table attached at https://384451.bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=287721).
