I'll echo that. Systemd is a monster trying to subsume everything, and doing it poorly.

90% of the things systemd does do not belong in the init, IMHO.

edit: BTW, on recent hardware even without a SSD a base boot is already less than a second:

No.

I don't understand how the advantage of systemd is reflected in the diagram in this link: git.fenrus.org/tmp/bootchart-20120512-1036.svg?!!! He hasn't compared it with traditional init!
