Faster is the wrong word -- scalable. It was definitely talking about scalability and load, not just pure speed.

- rkalla 16y agoredrobot5050, The first 30 slides or so are explicitly about the 25% performance gap between NIO and IO on a modern system -- I think it's fair to say the article was as much about performance as it was scalability. I think he even addresses the misconception that NIO is perceived as "faster" simply because it's more "Scalable" -- the "myths" slide that he keeps going back to and crossing elements off of as he proves them wrong.
