8 Unfortunately, the systemd guys keep screaming that systemd is faster,
9 and burden of proof is on the party that's claiming something. It's not
10 James'/Volker's responsibility to prove that systemd isn't faster.

12 That said, you guys need to stop flaming. If anything, it's easy to
13 dislike SysVInit because the init scripts it uses are piles of bash,
14 compared to a Systemd init script that has a handful of systemd config.

16 Is systemd starting to encompass too much? I think so, but who cares? If
17 we want an init manager that reads systemd-like files but doesn't do
18 anything else (hostnamectl, logging, udev, etc.), I guess we'll have to
19 make one.
