Tim, the point of the systemd scheme is that it allows you to specify a directed graph (actually a directed acyclic graph or DAG) of dependencies. In terms of expressive power this is a superset of what you can do with the number scheme. IOW anything you can do with the number system you can also do with a DAG, but often without overspecifying the order and hence losing potential parallelism. I'm saying this from a theoretical standpoint. Whether the potential parallelism is really exploited and if so whether it has a real effect is another matter, as is the syntax of the systemd command set. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
