journald is still very, very slow. As in, getting the entries for a given process can take a minute or more, whereas just grepping a normal text file is nearly instant. It doesn't help that the default rotation settings are insane (like, why would using a certain percentage of my total space be fine, what if all programs thought that?).
Generally I don't really understand what journald brings to the table. I'm sure there are esoteric setups where the hash chaining thing makes sense, but meh? A lot of things needed fixing and systemd fixed many of them, but everything journals is a terrible user experience for me.
