## RunMode:
##
## Inetd -- Run from inetd (default)
-## Daemon -- Run as a stand-alone daemon -- EXPERIMENTAL! BitlBee is not yet
-## stable enough to serve lots of users from one process. Because of this
-## and other reasons, the use of daemon-mode is *STRONGLY* discouraged,
-## don't even *think* of reporting bugs when you use this.
+## Daemon -- Run as a stand-alone daemon, serving all users from one process.
+## This saves memory if there are more users, the downside is that when one
+## user hits a crash-bug, all other users will also lose their connection.
## ForkDaemon -- Run as a stand-alone daemon, but keep all clients in separate
## child processes. This should be pretty safe and reliable to use instead
## of inetd mode.
