Additionally, it'll help those of us for whom rrdcache is dying due to eg OOM (it seems from my bash history that I've been restarting rrdcached once a month after it gets killed, but I haven't yet gotten around to debugging whether its memory usage truly is growing in a way indicating a leak). systemd ought just respawn it, and I can chuck a lower memory limit on it and not have to worry about it any more.
