Q: you say systemd requires CONFIG_CGROUPS=y. Why is that? It's taking over sysvinits job afaiui, what does that have to do with cgroups?
It does more than sysvinit. It does more than fork off services and then forget about them. It keeps track of them all the time.
It notices when all processes of a service have exited. It can kill all processes descended from a service. It can always tell what service a given process belongs to.
