Re: Keep reading I will get to a point eventually
"Obviously, it's not as efficient, data has to be copied. It's a lot safer and resilient."
But can that price be too high for something with a high potential for "context thrashing" like graphics and multimedia? That's one big reason high-performance drivers tend to stick with the kernel. Isn't that why BSD keeps the network drivers there for performance reasons (especially as network latency drops and speed rises)?
