IMO, initramfs adds yet another black box during server boot.
The other way around, for me at least. I build my own initramfs, yet I don't know anything about mdev, just the fact it's part of busybox. So for me, mdev is a black box, while my initramfs definitely isn't.
And yet another daemon in memory, something I certainly don't need on my static virtualized servers.
I agree with that. But why do you need mdev for a static system? A few mknods would suffice.
