I've never tried runit, but being an initng dev, I'm expected to be |
| 2 |
somewhat biased. |

Having just had a quick look at runit, it appears we have the larger |
| 5 |
collection of init scripts, however being simple bash scripts it could |
| 6 |
be expected that runit's are slightly easier to make. |

The real advantage that initng posesses are, unless runit's website is |
| 9 |
simply failing to mention it, auto-restarting of failed daemons, |
| 10 |
virtual dependencies, and clever multi-distro compatible scripts that |
| 11 |
use a preprocessor at install time (see the #ifd / #elsed / #endd |
| 12 |
statements in a file like |
| 13 |
http://svn.initng.org/initng-ifiles/trunk/initfiles/system/modules.ii). |

I've never tried RC_PARALLEL_STARTUP, haven't used sysvinit at all in 9 months. |
