Hi

I am currently building a RTOS with a HTML5 interface.
I am interested in kernel.js due to the design similarities with the microkernel architecture which works well for RTOS mission critical frameworks and applications where fundamental objective is not huge throughput of data, but the consistency of the data  throughput. (ie. low IPC jitter)

Working with web workers I've been able to so far implement a HTML5 standard threaded web app as a concept.
I am wondering about the scalability of kernel.js. Is there room to grow in terms of adding complex scheduling, what do you think of IPC latency with kernel.js in a full production environment?

Thanks.

I can't really speak to this use case because I have no experience with it. Kernel.js is just a messaging bus at heart, primarily intended for UI and interaction dev. It hasn't been put through vigorous optimization tests and there are certainly things that could be done to improve performance. If I were you I would run a set of performance tests and see if the results are acceptable. If not then you will have to optimize the source or look for another solution.
