Hi,
I submitted a new package to openSUSE:Factory: upstart. Mainly because of https://features.opensuse.org/305690 - the biggest gain of having it is clearly that everyone else has it, it doesn't get openSUSE a win right away. But not having it, may become a disadventage shortly - who knows.
For now we will support sysvinit and upstart as alternatives, but my preference would be not for long. The package I submitted is pretty much only a start and adopting our scripts to upstart will be less of a pain if we do not have to support alternatives.
Is it only me, or does upstart's init need 10 times more RAM than sysvinit's init? Does not seem to be a good alternative... strolchi:~ # ps u 1 USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 1 0.0 0.0 1984 136 ?
