There's an appropriately minimal comparison with runit in her slides (PDF) from a talk she gave in 2024: https://leahneukirchen.org/talks/#nitroyetanotherinitsy

What I got from looking at that comparison is that runit starts a separate supervisor process for each process started. I like the cleaner process tree of nitro, but I wonder what the tradeoffs are for each.
