It would be great if someone wrote an article with technical details about it. I see this repeated very often, but if you actually go looking for details... it's hard to find any justification.

I can’t say I have a decent justification off hand myself—this was the impression I had when digging through a comparison of the two softwares about a year back. Cgroups appears to have a much more detail laden implementation, but this could be explained away with my lack of Linux internals.
