Composefs: Content-Addressable Filesystem for Linux
Very promising, but given that they are still fixing binary search bounds checks, probably needs time to stabilize https://github.com/containers/composefs/commit/64640fa0fe256...

Bfs 3.0: The Fastest Find Yet
`bfs` doesn't actually use io_uring yet, but it is planned. I'm not sure I'd say it's specifically optimized for finding multiple files at once either, I try to make it fast for many different use cases. There's two benchmarks in the blog post and a few more that I run regularly, e.g. https://github.com/tavianator/bfs/pull/107

The file got moved and renamed since then, it's here now: https://github.com/tavianator/bfs/blob/main/src/xspawn.h
I'll fix the link, thanks
