> This reminds me, I had meant to research the feasibility of something like libaio for logging file i/o, I recall that you may have some experience with the java bindings? ;-) I imagine eventually io_uring may allow us to batch appends to multiple files into a single syscall, this could be huge as it's common to have some subset of events recorded to multiple files, but I admittedly haven't read as much about how this works in practice as I should. libaio need some JNI, as io_uring, but IMO io_uring is to be preferred because more modern. If it worths I've already implemented a version of libaio that minimize the usage of JNI (in favour of Unsafe now and VarHandle/Foreign Access in the future) ie https://github.com/apache/activemq-artemis-native/pull/10 and that can be used (with the right changes) as POC to see if it worths. Given the nature of being write-only, probably a logger library is a good fit, hence being able to NOT trigger the OS page cache can bring some benefit. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
