Maybe I spoke too soon....after clicking on restart from gnome desktop, 
a long period of time passes before the graphical desktop disappears.  
Restart is very fast after that.  Is this upstart or gnome?  Total time 
is now much longer (subjectively) and I believe my earlier assessment 
was faulty since that restart was immediately after installing upstart.

(BTW, have removed rhgb from grub menu since can't use interactive 
service startup with it.  I see this is covered in bz 433156.  Maybe 
upstart install should check and remove grub rhgb parm until solution 
coded.)

Not seeing any other issues, but don't know if upstart is any advantage 
at present.
