1. QNX is one of the two well known microkernels that is a real high performance microkernel (the other is Amiga EXEC).
2. You made the bad move of believing a vendors own benchmark page. I think you will find the benchmark given is the best possible cases for QNX (no swapping, no paging, no memory protection). Its not actually that misleading for what QNX is intended to do, but it is for general purpose OS things.
