No Problem - in uClinux, every memory is sharable - no MMU!

So I was able to do a quick speed test of the effect of shareable memory 
to PIXIL and nano-X.

The result was - disappointing. Sending the call parameters via shared 
memory instead of via the socket interface seems to have no much effect 
on the execution speed. I assume this is because on uClinux, sheduling 
time is short because of the nonexisting MMU.

So the main question is: why are some graphic operations are so slow? 
Any ideas?

regards
Amadeus
