I'm guessing these were custom event loops around io_uring? If so, we should
talk shop someday, Niall.

It's kind of interesting, once you get the hang of writing an event loop,
this
isn't such a daunting task if you're able to bring over and port a good
portion
of tests.

Plus, this kind of makes sense for most shops. You use C++ 'cause you care
about
low-level stuff and you'd wanna own this portion of your tech stack.
