When setting up Ubuntu servers and desktops, two daemons I always remove are the atd and irqbalance.
irqbalance is perhaps good when you have a server with quad-port NIC with a high rate of small packets and have found it to benefit over the kernel's interrupt allocation (but wastes time and energy otherwise); finally, the demographic who know and use the at daemon must be >1% surely. What justification do we have for continuing forcing these on users by default? (and can we win back some a slightly leaner, securer setup by revisiting this logic?) -- Daniel J Blueman -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
