I think there is more use of microkernels (eCos, RTEMS, Erlang, etc.) in the embedded world. The environment is more constrained, so reducing the footprint is useful.
That's just it, it doesn't reduce the footprint at all! All it does is legislate that the kernel function be small, and be the only "root" task. Everything else is pushed out into "user" land. You do the work in the kernel, or you do the work outside of the kernel, but you still have to do the work, and that takes code. -Chuck Harris _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
