Should I make this a normal page?

Revision as of 06:12, 26 June 2012

I have a problem with the notion of "monolithic == unstable". For one, stability relies very much on the quality of code. The monolithic architecture is statistically more prone to kernel crashes than a microkernel if both have the same code quality. Two, while a microkernel might not experience kernel crashes as often, it takes quite some skill to have your system recover from, say, a crash of the filesystem server. If your system is rendered inoperable, it doesn't matter much if it was the kernel or a user-space process to blame... Hence, and to avoid rants like this very one, I would attempt to tender my statements a bit, not taking sides. -- Solar 04:14, 25 June 2012 (CDT)
