claims that it "boots faster". If indeed it does boot faster, where's the return-on-investment cost analysis?
q.v. "boots faster" was never an objective; it was something that emerged from rationalizing the boot process. If you want to be picky about it, Linda has also 'rationalized' the boot process in a quite different way. She has made the point that you can boot without using initrd, and that too 'boots faster'. In fact if you read item #2 at http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/Optimizations/ you'll see that removing initrd is valid method of speeding up boot regardless of use of sysvinit or systemd. -- /"\ \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML Mail / \ -- Much of the wisdom of one age, is the folly of the next. -- Charles Simmons -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
