Compare rapiddisk vs daemon and see what are their differences.

rapiddisk

An Advanced Linux RAM Drive and Caching kernel modules. Dynamically allocate RAM as block devices. Use them as stand alone drives or even map them as caching nodes to slower local disk drives. Access those volumes locally or export them across an NVMe Target network. Manage it all from a web API. (by pkoutoupis)

    Believe it or not, that's actually the official slackware forum. And whatever solution those guys come up with, it will likely become the official solution.

    > Besides, the solution they came up with uses XDG autostart which has nothing to do with systemd.

    The slackware solution involves a project that nobody has heard of before, just so it can imitate the "user-level service" feature provided by systemd: https://github.com/raforg/daemon

    > Not to mention that it's not even doing the exact same thing as the Gentoo solution and running two more commands in addition to pipewire.

    The slackware solution requires starting those 3 processes (pipewire, pipewire-media-session, pipewire-pulse) separately from 3 different .desktop files, likely because the daemon tool above can't properly reap the pipewire-pulse process (not sure whose fault is this though).

    On the other hand, the gentoo solution can start all 3 processes with just 1 .desktop files, because `pkill` takes care of it. Simple and effective.

    I think the key difference, in this case, is that the slackware guys are trying their best to imitate a systemd feature, while the gentoo guys seem to focus more on finding the best way to allow users to enjoy pipewire.
