And perhaps we should also mention one of the main reasons: A system call for each single memory allocation will lead to a noticably slow system.

At the moment no I am not. I actually don't have any syscalls. I went another route and was able to get Programs working just fine, they can access any Kernel, and Os call as long as its visible to the program, but because its not a syscall the speed and performance is quite impressive. Nice thing is, I can change my Os and add onto it without corrupting the Program, so basically I have backwards compatibility as well as forward compatibility.

They did. It's called Singularity.
