I completely agree with Alan that if routing all messages through
DBUS daemon is a bottleneck, then something is seriously wrong with
the way the applications use the message bus.

Also, you mentioned the need of passing fd's between applications.
If I understand correctly, it is a rare case and if you handle such
messages in the same way as before, it won't hurt performance.

Have a nice fortnight
