The way I remember this one is DHE. Think Diffie Hellman E. Just to jog your memory. BD

that's not the right way to think about it, the reason DHE is more resource intensive (while more secure) is that it uses PFS, therefore you have different keys for each TLS session and they key is not reused unlike in case of RSA

Key exchange algorithm. Perfect forward secrecy (PFS) ephemeral algorithms such as DHE and ECDHE consume more resources than RSA. https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/best-practices/10-2/decryption-best-practices/decryption-best-practices/plan-ssl-decryption-best-practice-deployment
