Here is a semi-related thought.

Without regard for memory consumption, but rather due to the notion that 
system-wide, manageable, canonical mechanisms are better than 
app-specific mechanisms, I would prefer that Puppet did not have a 
daemon mode, scheduler, sleep-N-minutes mechanism etc., at all; but 
rather that the Puppet install process set it up in cron. Of course I 
can set it up that way myself, but what I wish was that Puppet didn't 
carry the burden of its own mechanism: no code for it, no command line 
options, no init.d script, no wiki pages about it, no discussion of it, etc.

(I'm sure there is a good reason it made sense at the time, and 
nonetheless I like Puppet a lot, I continue to be a fan of Puppet!)
