What a wonderfully dogmatic comment that completely misses the point of io_uring.

  Care to shed some lights on the points of io_uring the OP misses? (honestly interested)

  Given the article's over-the-top opening, I think it's good to have a reality check that reminds us of fundamentals like correctness over speed, and clarity over cleverness.

    io_uring is correct. It's nothing clever - in fact, it's quite boring. It is specifically meant for applications that must handle high volumes of asynchronous I/O. Yes, believe it or not, you can achieve correctness and speed, together, without compromise.

  For 99,99% of Linux programming io_uring and eBPF do not have a point and developers couldn't care less about them.
