==========
A fast floating WM, with the particularity of having 2 borders, written over the XCB library and derived from mcwm written by Michael Cardell.<br>
In 2bWM everything is accessible from the keyboard but a pointing device can be used for move, resize and raise/lower.<br>
The name has recently changed from mcwm-beast to 2bwm<br>

Now comparing Memory ressource usage. (in KB)
mcwm -- the wm 2bwm is based upon
dvtm -- a terminal multiplexer
```
~ > ps -eo args,size,vsize,pcpu | grep -P "(^dvtm)|(^2bwm)|(^mcwm)|(^dwm)|(^monsterwm)" <
mcwm 300 2480 0.0
dvtm 4744 8776 0.0
2bwm 300 2544 0.0
dwm 300 5400 0.0
monsterwm 304 3708 0.0
```
Notice that all those WM are really small and that size doesn't really matter in the end.
