Again I don't see how existing D-Bus client code would benefit from that.

From what I've seen now, the old AF_BUS (AF_DBUS?) patches might be closest to what I \
have in mind but those have been buried for so long that they can probably no longer \
be used (I got the the kdbus kmod from systemd to build against a *4.14* kernel, and \
had to reboot after trying to test it).


Part of my interest comes from the fact that I tend to work on \
old/cheap/underdimensioned systems that I probably ask a bit much of. There are times \
where a heavy dbus client like kmail becomes very sluggish, waiting for something \
that probably involves dbus communication while there isn't a clear CPU hogger. I \
noticed that the dbus-daemon has a single-threaded design and cannot help but wonder \
if that's still by definition the best approach these days.

R.
