I appreciate the links provided here. I had found a few items on line as well.
All I have read about upstart really just related to faster boot times, which isn't that big of a sell-point for me. I'm not saying I'm not opposed to faster boot times, that would just be silly. I was just pointing out that if that was all it offers, that alone wouldn't convince me to switch to upstart. However, it sounds like there is more to upstart and systemd than just faster boot times.
