I'm wondering if it's time for a revival of the capability-based OS's of the 70's, such as Hydra/C.mmp, CMU's flagship OS of the time.
Seems like the raw performance is there, and the CPU parallelism is there. Certainly the time is ripe for a more secure basis for operating systems, and capabilities still seem like one of the best theoretical foundations around.
