That's true, and maybe lower-level optimizations will start to emerge. But I suspect QUIC was intentionally left in userspace to allow for more rapid development. Indeed there are already many libraries available which means you can use it today. If we had to wait for kernels and middleware to support it, that might still be years out.
- JoshTriplett 4y agoI agree, and I think userspace development was a good idea. I also don't think it needs to stay in userspace forever. In particular, ideally we'll have kernel support that allows for more capable userspace stacks to run, and also allows just opening a socket.
