Io Uring
I've tinkered around with io_uring on and off for the last couple years. But I think it's really becoming quite cool (not that it wasn't cool before... :)). This was a really interesting post on what's new https://github.com/axboe/liburing/wiki/io_uring-and-networki.... The combination of ring-mapped buffers and multi-shot operations has some really interesting applications for high-performance networking. Hoping over the next year or two we can start to see really bleeding edge networking perf without having to resort to using DPDK :)

Why you should use io_uring for network I/O
Thought I was doing something wrong at first, but after looking at examples and code, I just wasn't able to reach the epoll numbers. Looking on the Github page, there a few issues there with people who found the same thing, with their own examples. #1, #2

Use io_uring for network I/O
To address my own silly questions, yes, one should use the new fixed buffers described in this document: https://github.com/axboe/liburing/wiki/io_uring-and-networki...

New scalable, fault-tolerant, and efficient open-source MQTT broker
We use Netty (https://netty.io/) as the source of the MQTT communication, and we build the MQTT features the MQTT broker should support ourselves on top of that.

Modern Async Primitives on iOS, Android, and the Web
In this space, we also have the somewhat related term blocking. Java's NIO library is one well-known non-blocking tool used for managing multiple tasks on a single Java thread. When listening to sockets, most of the time a thread is just blocked, doing nothing until it receives some data. So, it's efficient to use a single thread for monitoring many sockets, to increase the likelihood of the thread having some actual work to do. The Selector API does this but is notoriously challenging to program well. Instead, developers use frameworks like Netty which abstract some of NIO's complexity and layer on some best practices.

An investigative journey through concurrent data structures
DirectByteBuffer exhibits an intriguing behavior: it deallocates its backing memory during the finalization process, which occurs after garbage collection (GC) cycles. This poses an issue if your system is conservative with on-heap allocations, leading to infrequent GC cycles. In such cases, there could be a significant delay between the time the memory becomes unreferenced and when it is actually deallocated. This behavior could, in some respects, mimic a memory leak.
This is why some libraries hacks into DirectByteBuffer to deallocate memory explicitly, bypassing the finalizer altogether. For instance, the Netty library has implemented such a workaround, see Netty as an [example](https://github.com/netty/netty/blob/795db4a866401aa172757b95...).

Scaling to ~15K requests per second with Java – Part 1
Apologies replying to myself, but Netty, which underpins many of the popular Java backend frameworks, see backward compatibility as more important than supporting green threads.
https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/12816
It'll be interesting to see who (if anyone) picks up Netty's mantle in the Project Loom world.

Is jre17 the problem? How do I get an old eclipse? Error: Could not find or load main class netty.DiscardServer Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: netty.DiscardServer
Looks fairly recent so I'm glad I had a pre oct22 build https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/12737

Lessons learned from picking a Java driver for Amazon ElastiCache for Redis - Part 2
Given the fact that Lettuce is built with Netty, we also immediately noticed quite an impact on the initialization time (cold start) of our lambda function. Netty is really fast while executing, but takes a bit of time to initialize. The new Lambda Snapstart functionality might help with that.
