Systemd uses cgroups heavily, so chances are your typical distribution runs hundreds of them under the hood.

- bcaa7f3a8bbc 7y agoThanks for reminding me about systemd. I just used "systemd-cgtop", and yes, I see 38 cgroups, one cgroup for each service/user. But 88% of the memory is used by one cgroup: user.slice, for all the program started by me under the desktop. So I'm not sure it can save a lot of memory on container-less desktop. Surely good for all servers.
