userspace filesystem Vs kernelspace filesystem

Hello,everyone!

Linux kernel provides vfs for the various physical filesystems.The
profit we get from the
VFS is just the standard interface it provides such as read and write?

Can we implement a user space filesystem which is actually a library?I
think it will be
faster than kernel space filesystem through the vfs layer.

Any suggestions or commnets?

Thank you!
