I went through and read it, and the submitter is incredibly confrontational and not at all open to feedback on the correctness of their benchmark. Also, when presented with contradictory evidence (their own benchmark where the results show io_uring is faster than epoll on other machines), they essentially dismiss it and says the other users ran their benchmark wrong, or that they can't reproduce their results on their machine, or that the other users used Boost and therefore are invalid. So not an entirely reliable criticism coming from them, in my opinion.
- halpert 5y agoThat’s not my take at all. Many people respond with hand waving arguments: maybe epoll is faster because the benchmark is wrong, or only one file descriptor is used (which wasn’t correct but said anyway), etc. Other people also respond saying they’ve been unable to match epoll performance when trying to add io_uring support to their libraries.
