Hi,
Please CC: me on replies, i'm not subscribed to debian-devel.

-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root   5588 2003-09-15 17:41 /sbin/minit
-r-x------    1 root     root   5588 2003-09-24 10:31 /sbin/runit-init
-r-x------    1 root     root   8628 2003-09-24 10:31 /sbin/runit
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root  12724 2003-09-24 10:31 /usr/bin/runsv

minit is already really small. All it does is running processes and
restarting them when they die. There seems to be little difference
between what i can do with minit and with multiple runsv.
And yes, i do know about shared memory.
I admit that runsvdir has some nice features - like something similar to
runlevels, but way easier to understand.
Just change the symlink to the new runlevel and it will terminate
services not in the new runlevel, while starting new services. Nice!

But i don't see why i need that many processes:
