In Windows 8 and later the group policy service (and maybe other services as well, I couldn't find any info on that) can go to sleep to save power. Do you think a similar feature could be implemented for systemd?
Source: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn265973.aspx#BKMK_Perf The Group Policy Client service will sleep when the Group Policy service is idle for more than 10 minutes. *What value does this change add?* Group Policy processes approximately every 90 minutes, by default. Setting the Group Policy Client service to sleep in between processing helps create better performance for client computers. *What works differently?* Group Policy background refresh starts as a scheduled task, not as a service that continuously checks to determine when it is time to run the background refresh. The scheduled task model requires less overhead processing, which creates better performance for client computers. Garegin aka the sysadmin who can't code for squat
