   Did you try Lubuntu?  I have a couple of VirtualBox VMs on standby with   
   Lubuntu 18.04 LTS configured.  They run so lightly: less than 1Gb with ~200Mb   
   in use; humming at 20% CPU unless needed.  They're there if I need to switch   
   to IPv6... sometime never.  ;)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
