No, it isn't that slow! :-) I'd guess something funny in your disk
completions... it's a very straightforward IDE driver (except, of course,
that it runs in user mode).

It depends on what kind of networking you want to do. Basic IP stack is
operational (though I found a memory leak I need to hunt down), as is basic
clustering (i.e., transparent forwarding of VSTa kernel messages).

I'll have a look again. I updated many of the files in the actual
