Yes, this can be better fine-tuned.
Should there be a limit? AFAIU, if we pick e.g. StartLimitBurst=11,
RestartSec=1, then with the default StartLimitIntervalSec=10s, the limit
will never be hit and the service would be tried to be restarted
perpetually. Do we want to keep a limit by also increasing the
StartLimitIntervalSec value accordingly?
I suppose this should be adapted for pvedaemon and pveproxy too then?
