I can't imagine how that could have gone differently. If Hurd was completed in the 90s, would anyone use a kernel that was slower than linux because it doesn't share data structures between parts of the kernel?
"Windows 11 security measures include Memory Integrity and Virtual Machine Platform (VMP) to protect against malware, which are features that can also disrupt gaming performance. If you choose to turn these features off before gaming, it can improve your performance and help you focus on the games at hand. Afterwards, it’s important to turn them on again since you are opening your PC up to risks while it’s less protected. For short periods, you might try turning off your Memory Integrity and VMP to see if you notice a difference."

Perhaps in the server world where uptime is critical. After all, that is Linux’s largest market share.
Even today people disable isolation to improve performance even though our desktops are faster than old supercomputers: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/learning-center/opti...
