Abstract: We have improved the performance of the Mach 3.0 operating system by redesigning its internal thread and interprocess communication facilities to use continuations as the basis for control transfer. Compared to previous versions of Mach 3.0, our new system consumes 85% less space per thread. Cross-address space remote procedure calls execute 14% faster. Exception handling runs over 60% faster. In addition to improving system performance, we have used continuations to generalize many control... (Update)
