I'll give it a look, wasn't too worried about it as we're also still
missing the zero copy bits. More concerned with just getting the core of
it sane, which I think we're pretty close to. Then we can work on making
it even faster post that.

Exactly, that's why I objected to some of the v2 io_uring hackery that
just wasn't palatable.
