Hi Alexander,

congratulations for this great achievement, and thank you for sharing
your work!

Even though I'm unable to give meaningful feedback regarding Go, I'm
very happy that you found ways to avoid patching Genode's main
repository. Thank you for having taken our earlier feedback wrt to the
libc to heart.

Hats off for your perseverance and for your further planning.

The initial delay of the seL4 version possibly depends on the amount of
physical memory used. At boot time, physical memory gets converted into
seL4 kernel objects in [1] (if I remember right). To see the effect, you
may try tweaking the Qemu's -m argument.

> Note2: May be it worth to add patch below permanently to main genode?

Yes, this patch would be welcome.

Cheers
Norman
