Hi Hendrik,<br><br><br>Pistachio is about 10000 loc, I can&#39;t think of
why in such difference. Pistachio makes a huge effort on portability so
probably having such a good ABI-API segregation makes it longer in loc.
but that is just a guess, do you know about IPC performance differences
between MINIX and L4?
