I am running it over Debian on my Novena, where it is quite usable - this is
the machine from which I am writing this e-mail! I do not know whether it is
actually slower than on the X200. The four cores help; in the background
I am building Qt, and the machine is still usable. In any case, there is
no reason that Guix(SD) should be slower than any other GNU/Linux distribution.
I also tried KDE, which I found too slow; under Xfce, I am quite happy.
(Of course, I am using substitutes.)
