- htfy96 8y ago> Axboe claims that it is far more efficient, but no benchmark results have been included yet to back up that claim. Among other things, this interface can do asynchronous buffered I/O without a context switch in cases where the desired data is in the page cache; buffered I/O has always been a bit of a sore spot for Linux AIO.
