Arch Linux vs Artix Linux (Dinit, Runit, and S6).

In the upper left corner is Arch Linux, and throughout is Artix Linux with several init systems. Booting time and memory use, Arch Linux and Artix Linux with Runit are tied at third position, but because Arch Linux uses more RAM than Artix Linux with Runit, Dinit and S6, it drops to fourth place.
Therefore, it may be said that Arch Linux loses the battle-or the war.

Systemd was last from grub, that makes impression of slow boot, but in neofetch - uptime is the same as runit, in htop task count shows clean 12 in systemd but biggest load of all, and in poweroff systemd looks very quickly. It would be interesting to see those in HDD boot.
and as always great comparison, good job!

[@alphab91]

Thank you, Yeah, you are right. I'm going to make a video on booting all of them using an HDD.

[@godnyx117]

The shutdown of dinit was as fast as SystemD. Also, who uses HDD for an OS these days, lol!

[@alphab91]

@@godnyx117 Try an init system on an HDD to see how quickly it responds. SSDs are fast, as we all know, but an HDD makes a noticeable difference.

[@godnyx117]

@@alphab91 I know! And for up to 1TB capacity (maybe 2?), they do have the same price as an SSD. So unless someone is a data center and uses tons of TBs, I see no reason on using an HDD these days...

Ive tried all of these but s6, in my opinion dinnit is the best and easiest one of those ive tried. But i wonder how it compares to s6 in ease of use and stability. Which one of those two is the best?

[@alphab91]

Yes, using and configuring Dinit is a little easier. S6 is quicker, but more challenging to configure.

@@Winnetou17 That is my personal experience with Dinit and S6.

@@alphab91 No, I'm not debating your experience.
I'm debating what you wrote. It basically sums up to "X = Y and Y > X". You cannot have that.
Either X = Y (just as easy) or Y > X (Y is more difficult). They can't be just as easy but one more difficult at the same time. See my confusion ?

Yeah, I agree. This is meant to give an idea of different init systems out there.

Dnit looks to have the 2nd less memory usage and the least CPU usage!!! Bet the system will be as smooth and responsible as it gets!!!

Yeah, Dinit is amazing.

It revived my 8 year old school laptop.
No lag, it's like brand new again (or better really).
I couldn't believe it, the first time I booted it up.

[@alphab91]

@@Skelterbane69 Yeah, that is the point of this init system: to be fast and as light as possible, and you can scale it if you want to use it on the server. I have a Pentium 4 desktop computer; it's 12 years old. I use it as a server using Artix Linux with Dinit, and it works like a charm.

Which one is faster artix linux with dinit, or alpine linux?

@@user-mq7dp9kz1w Yeah, booting faster makes the system use less power, even if it's for a second or two seconds. Of course, we can compare Arch Linux (systemd) and Artix Linux (dinit).
