the MacOS is trying hard to be all things for all software
it is obviously succeeding since it is the best OS out there
but that means that it is bloated vis-à-vis what is necessary for the OS to run a particular piece of software
in the beginning it made sense because it used less memory and that was just about paramount importance then
now chip technology has removed that hurdle and opens the gate for software that has its own OS
(of course there would be a ROOT OS that did the kine things that were independent of individual software packages )
why do i need those aspects of the OS that are necessary to run Photoshop or Excel if i am running Safari?
i'm thinking it could be something like a PARTITION that is created when a software package is installed
there would be free unemcumbered movement from the individual software OS to and from the ROOT OS
if the MacOS's functionality were stripped to just that which is necessary to run the machine and Photoshop included aspects of the OS necessary to run Photoshop there would be a performance increase
i haven't thought this through completely but i may have something!
(this is an aside: i ask this question for selfish and legal reasons: will this post give me any intellectual property kine legal standing if a year from now Photoshop or some other software manufacturer in conjunction with Apple or even MS markets a software product with a dedicated OS?)
