If you have concerns about P/Invoke performance, you might consider looking into the System.Security.SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurityAttribute attribute:

	http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.security.suppressunmanagedcodesecurityattribute.aspx

This can help speed up P/Invoke performance by disabling security-related stack walks on .NET.  On Mono I *believe* this won't have an effect, as CAS is disabled by default (as it isn't supported).
