This document compares Upstart and systemd with a view to aiding in the transition to the latter.

Tip:

You can “fix” the menus in Vivid Vervet.

If you don’t like the global (or local) menus in Ubuntu 15.04, you can go to System Settings > Appearance > Behavior and choose the desired location of menus from ‘Show the menus for a window’ option. You can also install dconf-editor to tweak a number of Unity settings, including the auto-hide of menus.
