Very interesting, thanks for the link.

I see this here:

System Requirements
Qubes Release 3.x
Minimum

64-bit Intel or AMD processor (x86_64 aka x64 aka AMD64)
4 GB RAM
32 GB disk space
Legacy boot mode (required for R3.0 and earlier; UEFI is supported beginning with R3.1)
That 32 GB stares down a bit bulky to KVM as I run it.
KVM can be whittled down to a a very small footprint,
particularly in something like ALPINE Wicket referred to earlier here.

(I can squeeze everything of interest into about 4 GB,
but 6 GB would leave ample room for whatever.)

I may be tempted to give QUBES a spin and check it out,
but as you point out, it seems a bit heavy.
