systemd?

[ssidhar]

this is just a question again,

how much faster is the new systemd thing than the things currently used for sleeping and shutting down and turning on?

and it's coming out in fedora 15 right?

it'll be default in F15, however you can still use it in F14, speed differences, probably better than Upstart

But how can i use systemd instead of Upstart on FC 14 beta ?

Good question. :)

Try a review of this -

"...If you are testing systemd in Fedora 14, you will have to pass init=/bin/systemd as a boot option since the current default is upstart..."

Hope this helps. ;)

I wouldn't really recommend doing it at present, F14 isn't set up for it and Lennart hasn't indicated he intends to support systemd in F14 as a non-default init system.

There was no noticeable speed difference between the two in F14 in most configurations. systemd *potentially* allows boot speed to be improved but just using systemd doesn't magically accomplish this; there's various things to be done to optimize the init process once systemd is in place, and that work is planned for F15/F16.

If one is going to "optimize the init process" why not to use upstart and optimize for it? May be this optimization "not magically" will help upstart to boot up fedora quickly?
