As such, it is able to run the core of an operating system as separated processes, which allows a great flexibility ( one could run several operating systems in parallel above the Mach core ), but this often reduces performance because of time consuming kernel / user mode context switches and overhead stemming from mapping or copying messages between the address spaces of the microkernel and that of the service daemons.

Some operators, especially incumbent operators with large existing subscriber bases, have argued against portability on the grounds that providing this service incurs considerable overhead, while others argue that it prevents vendor lock-in and allows them to compete fairly on price and service.

This arrangement also allows for two overhead camshafts to drive all the valves.

The downsides of materialized views are the overhead incurred when updating them to keep them synchronized with their original updated database data, and the cost of storage redundancy.

The profit that could be made by taking advantage of the differing postal rates in different countries to buy IRCs cheaply in one country and exchange them for stamps of a higher value in another country was the intended profit generator for a scheme operated by Charles Ponzi, which became the fraudulent Ponzi scheme ; in practice, the overhead on buying and selling large amounts of the very low-value IRCs precluded profitability.
