Parallel init is still limited by IO-heavy tasks. All I've seen about
"parallel service startup" is that is makes almost no difference.


"parallel init" is surprisingly not the answer to booting fast.

(unlike parallel, asynchronous components do help)

But there's no reason to delay logins until cron or the sendmail daemon have started. And the sendmail daemon doesn't really ever have to run unless there are undelivered messages in the queue. I'd guess the only reason it was ever done that way was the convention of giving X it's own runlevel which doesn't make all that much sense anyway.
