      <br>
      <br>
      I'd like to know if systemd community thinks that adding support
      for relative values in configuration is a good idea.
      <br>
      <br>
      I found a related patch and discussion in <a
        class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032191.html">https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032191.html</a>.
      <br>
      <br>
      Quoting from the comments:
      <br>
      """
      <br>
      <br>
      I'd always keep our basic structures as generic as possible, and
      as
      <br>
      close to the way CPUs work. Hence: store things as fixed-point
      <br>
      32bit/32bit internally, but make it configurable in percent as
      <br>
      user-pointing UI.
      <br>
      <br>
      """
      <br>
      <br>
      According to the comments, it seems that adding such support is
      acceptable?
      <br>
      <br>
      I' sending out this email because I want to check with the
      community before I start to investigate more.
      <br>

      Best Regards,
