Just a thought, but is the amount of system-call casuing some problems.
Not knowing how much there are, but malloc is one of them.

If so, maybe some memory handling needs to be added which does once
allocates a huge block from the system and then in user land claims
pieces where needed. At the end of some cycle all is returned at
