We must be using the same fonts, I've been harassing Jens with jokes=20 about this for days. But, I totally missed the link between io_uring=20 and https://twitter.com/axboe/status/927571366085246976 until just now. =20 It's clear that Jens has been planning this for over a year, and he was=20 just waiting for us to catch on. Really though, io_uring is growing on me. The kernel is full of rings=20 and it does help set it apart. -chris
