Does anyone have experience in using either of these? How much is the performance different than the current init?
I use Initng. Is is running perfectly. In fact, a bug I had (where Esound would not start on booting as it should) was solved by moving from Sysvinit to initng. The performance difference is large, but I don't remember the numbers. Just try for yourself. On my Gentoo system, I have both Initng and Sysvinit. I choose on the Grub menu which one I'll boot. Initng is default. Sysvinit is there only because my friend Justin made me keep it. Note: I'm using initng-0.6.8. Thanks,
KS.
