Hell, pass
init=/bin/yes
and you'll see even more greatly reduced RAM usage!So that's 260 MiB of RSS (assuming no shared libs which is certainly false) for:
nohup &
needs to be fired into the sun.pkill
is not the tool I should have to use to manage my user's daemons)For comparison the web page I'm writing this on uses 117 MiB, about half. I'll very gladly make the tradeoff of two sh.itjust.works tabs for one systemd suite. Or did you send that comment using
curl
because web browsers are bloated?For another comparison 200 MiB of RAM is less than two dollars at current prices. I don't value my time so low that I'll avoid spending two bucks by spend hours debugging whatever bash scripting spaghetti hell other init systems cling onto to avoid "bloat". I've done it, don't miss it.
I'm using Eternity for Lemmy stuff on phone and Lemmy web under Brave.
