OK, where are your performance studies on how wonderful systemd is? |
| 10 |
Simple (2) identical system except for systemd only on one. Run a |
| 11 |
wide variety of tests, publish the data. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Publish perfomanced metrics; Choice; Unreasonable? |

I'm not sure if this is a threat, a promise or are you just trash talkin |
| 23 |
with me now? |

Besides, there is another thing you are not considering. The world of |
| 26 |
embedded linux >> user linux. So, the embedded designers are all |
| 27 |
wonderfully in line with systemd? Have you been to any of those |
| 28 |
forums? They live by cgroups, because a few folks showed them how |
| 29 |
to minimize embedded systems with age old state diagrams. Have you |
| 30 |
offered them the systemd or highway plan yet? |
| 31 |

It's not me, Rich, it lots of other technically astute folks that |
| 34 |
are not happy. I just want choice. I hope systemd is wildly successful, |
| 35 |
but I'm old school, so you and others are going to have to "show me". |
