Package: libpipeline1 Version: 1.5.7-1 Severity: wishlist The new io_uring_spawn mechanism for spawning processes without forking should be more efficient than fork+exec, especially when starting small processes from large processes. Also posix_spawn and vfork+exec exist.
https://lwn.net/Articles/908268/ I think the order of preference for spawning processes should be: * io_uring_spawn: this is Linux-only and only in new versions. Prefer this over posix_spawn in case of an old glibc and new Linux kernel. * posix_spawn: this uses the appropriate mechanisms on each platform, glibc might be changing this to use io_uring_spawn where possible. * vfork+exec: this is similar to what glibc does for posix_spawn. * fork+exec: the current setup. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
