I've been tinkering with the "Package User's" method, and I believe
that I like it over unionfs ... I shied away from unionfs management
because of two reasons:

* I perceive unionfs as requiring minor (but additional) runtime
resources to handle the mounting / unions where as the user package
scheme doesn't.

* The union FS page (http://www.filesystems.org/project-unionfs.html)
has a link to a number of unionfs examples,
(http://www.linux-live.org/unionfs/) which in fact turns out to be a
fellow's private tirade against unionFS and suggests using AUFS due to
excessive crashes ...

Have you experienced unionfs as being stable/unstable?
Have you found unionfs chews additional resources?

I'm honestly asking, because I was very much interested in unionfs due
to the latest hint published ... it looked like just the style of
system I wanted ...
