MasterDuke istr there was some discussion when libuv first announced io_uring support/usr, but i don't remember if we need to do something explicit to take advantage of it? 01:44
ugexe i'm not sure if we'd be able to use it for file i/o. i think it is only used on the async code paths, and even then still falls back to its own threadpool when there is no io_uring support for some thing 01:48
the only os it supports is linux i believe, so implementing a bunch of new async ops using it wouldn't apply to everything 01:49
MasterDuke hasn't windows had something similar for a while? 01:51
ugexe yeah, but libuv doesn't use it 02:07
MasterDuke huh. know why? 02:08
ugexe i have no clue 02:50
