Are there cases here one might want to enable/disable these cgroup namespaces independently?

@bgamari i can't think of any reason, but there might be special cases. then one still can disable this option and use systemd.extraConfig.

👍 for the option. This is something everybody using nixos for desktop should enable. but for servers it should be false since it comes with a bit of performance hit. For this reason I would like to change the default value to false.

@garbas thanks for the feedback!

i changed default to false.

so should this get enabled when a DE is enabled?

I think having it false by default is ok, we can have a different discussion about it if we want to enable this or not and when.
