OK. Can you show me an init script that is 25 lines long AND uses cgroups to guaranteed the process termination?

During one of the systemd flamewars some years ago I tried to find an actual init script that uses cgroups for comparison with systemd units. I was not able to do it.
Writing it was also decidedly non-trivial, I had to create my own cgroup hierarchy convention and make sure that there are no race conditions in cgroups manipulation. Both are not easy at all, and I was not even trying to use cgroups controllers to limit the resource use.
