This sounds like you want something not possible (with Genode and
maybe also entirely impossible depending on how one reads your
statement). I'd like to urge you to reconsider splitting your
allocation of dataspaces at a granularity that suits your needs. This
way you might identify a sweet spot between allocating to many
dataspaces and copying to many bytes. Thinking twice, the granularity
could even be dynamic not static.

I understand that this puts the burden of software implementation on
your shoulders but Genode does not provide more convenience in this
regard.

Cheers
