I've been running MXLinux for a long time, years in fact, but I tried out
the latest version of LinuxMint Cinnamon  and on the same hardware it is
much, much faster than MXLinux.
Especially with regards to loading browsers and surfing.
It was painfully slow under MXLinux. Browser didn't matter.
It's not even close.
I wasn't a fan of LinuxMint in the past but I sure am now.

It's come a long way baby!
