I would love to see an io_uring comparison as well; while it's a substantial amount of work to port an existing framework to io_uring, at the point where you're considering DPDK, io_uring seems relatively small by comparison.

I personally started a new framework and I went for io_uring for simplicity, that is already giving most of what I need -- asynchronous I/O with no context switching.

DPDK is huge and inflexible, it does a lot of things which I'd rather be in control of myself and I think it's easier to just do my own userspace vfio.
