xorsum VS liburing

Here's the GH issue

There are more EEs! but not DR/UT related. The full file is here

A checksum program named xorsum. It's a basic hash function completely based on the XOR cipher algorithm. It's my first crate, but I made much more progress than I thought would be possible for my skills. There's still missing functionality, and unhandled potential panics/errors.

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 :)

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

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...

We're working on this! https://github.com/axboe/liburing/issues/830
