From ba2959900169e07045be0ffcd7f36c2fe1594e65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ankit Kumar Pandey Date: Fri, 2 Jan 2026 19:08:52 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/7] perf: Rust event loop experiment + buffer pool FD reuse fix - Added Rust-native event loop (run_until_stopped) - REVERTED as it was 3x slower due to FFI overhead when calling Python callbacks from Rust - Fixed buffer leak on FD reuse (release existing buffer before overwrite) - Removed buffer quarantine for immediate reclamation - Updated PyO3 default buffer_count to 4096 - Added pipes.py for StreamReader/StreamWriter API - Added comprehensive benchmarks vs asyncio and uvloop Results: - uringcore beats asyncio: 18/21 benchmarks - uringcore beats uvloop: 15/21 benchmarks - Known limitation: sock_pair benchmark skips due to RLIMIT_MEMLOCK buffer pool size constraint --- Cargo.toml | 1 + benchmarks/final_comparison.txt | 109 +++++++++ benchmarks/final_report.txt | 75 +++++++ python/uringcore/__init__.py | 4 +-

Benchmarking revealed that a simple `Mutex` protecting a `VecDeque` outperforms atomic channels because: 1. **Allocation Reuse**: `VecDeque` reuses its capacity, avoiding per-push memory allocation. 2. **Cache Locality**: Contiguous memory access is faster than linked-list nodes. 3. **Low Contention**: The lock is only disputed when `loop.call_soon_threadsafe` pushes from another thread, which is rare in typical asyncio apps.
