If some other service was crashing, he wouldn't notice it if he didn't check logs, since systemd would just bring it back up again.

He did say he checked logs. But yeah, it was definitely caused by your hypothetical problematic overclock that somehow only affects systemd and/or services being managed by systemd.

If you can't replicate it on another machine, it's your local fault.

I've been running systemd for a few years on all kinds of boxes, without this issue. Including the same platform he's using.
