Hi all
A new kernel API called io_uring has recently come to my attention. I assume
some of you (Andres?) have been following it for a while.
io_uring appears to offer a way to make system calls including reads, writes,

I'm looking forward to this from the async+direct I/O, since the throughput of
some write-heavy workload decreased by half or more during checkpointing (due
