Good parts of SystemD are good, bad parts are bad. SystemD is easy to use when it fits your needs, but pain to use otherwise.

For example, `systemd-analyze` is a good tool for boot performance analysis, so + for systemd, but if I want/need to use perf for boot performance analysis, then systemd stands in my way, while for initd it's just yet another boot mode.

What's the limitation stopping you from using perf in the same way as you would before? I've never had the need to try to do that.
