Thanks you all.

I think it is a good idea to try a live-cd. Maybe gentoo¿?

I have been looking to some light OS and Triskel mini looks like quite attractive, I tried it many years ago. That will be my second option.

Thanks :-)

Orgmode is sometimes desperately slow on my PC:

I am running Windows 10, everything I use works OK, but Orgmode.

Do you think that if I install a Linux OS, Orgmode would run fast? Any 
OS suggestion?
AFAIK, 4Gb is barely enough for Windows 10. If I remember correctly, 4Gb
is the minimal hardware requirement for Windows 10, and it will use
almost the whole RAM in such scenario.

So, using things like Chromium or Emacs will likely exceed your RAM
capacity and put system into using SWAP.

You can downgrade to Windows 7, which just requires 2Gb, or you can use
Linux indeed. For example, my current Gentoo setup with Awesome WM +
Browser + Emacs + Syncthing + RSSHub + davmail running only takes 2.7Gb
RAM with bare system (no extra docker services, Emacs, and browser) only
taking 150Mb.
