actually the wallpapers that our systems use are raster graphics and are OF THE SAME SIZE..it doesn't depend on how dense the picture seems to your eyes but infact it is about the pixels that occupy the monitor screen. it only makes the system slow regarding backgrounds only if u put some animations there. animations are the moing sequence of images giing the illusion of motion..
What this has anything to do with raster and vector graphics and how exactly can u tell that the wallpapers we use are of the same size? An image with rich graphics and more details will weigh more in size than a blank image with no graphics both having the same dimensions. A 1x1 pixels image used as titled on your desktop background is going to have a 500 times less size than a 1024x768 image with graphics and details. I cannot question the suggestion given by OP. When we use a desktop wallpaper it uses our system memory and yes its not a good idea to use an animated background if your RAM is even 256k. AND trust me it has NOTHING to do with pixels but the size of image that will eat your memory.
