Comment on Show HN: Munal OS: a graphical experimental OS with WASM sandboxing

Comments

It's an unikernel design that is compiled as a single EFI binary and does not use virtual address spaces for process isolation.

Are you able to quantify what kind of performance improvement to expect from such a design?

My understanding is that this can completely skip overhead of syscalls and TLB, but I have no idea of how much performance benefits can it result in practice.
