We do it on Pantheon's infrastructure because many daemons have a
resource footprint that is more than just allocated memory, like
waking themselves up for cache cleanup or inefficient polling on
sockets. We shut down socket-activated applications after an hour of
idle time, and it dramatically frees up server resources for active
daemons.
