Uh, legacy free? I'd argue the opposite - it's got tons of legacy baggage - cooperative multitasking, and a lot is written in old ARM assembly language. It's disk limitations, filetypes.

I am quite impressed that the bounties that are put out to improve it get funded. (to be clear, this is not sarcasm , there's tens of thousands of pounds £s donated). I've tried in on my Pi, and it's super snappy, if a little odd.
