SMF is not overkill for indiana.

it might be overkill to instantiate quite the number of SMF services that 
a full-blown solaris installation does at first-boot, but SMF itself is 
incredibly useful.  ;)

you *can* have too much of a good thing, but I don't think SMF is that.

you get used to it very quickly - it is very nice to work on, as well, 
when you find that you need to deploy a new service of some kind....

it isn't rocket science, just not familiar to everyone.
