Well, and all I am saying is that the paper, including the section you mention, don't take these latest developments into account. They're not kernel bypasses.

Well, and all I am saying is that the paper, including the section you mention, don't take these latest developments into account. They're not kernel bypasses. They're driver level optimizations and traditional APIs operating on file descriptors and virtual memory aiming to solve similar problems. This stuff is very new of course, so we have to wait for something to actually integrate all those pieces and then for benchmarks.
