You can’t ignore the speed of innovation in user-space implementations. From Istio v1.22 to the upcoming v1.26, ztunnel’s performance has nearly doubled. A common belief in networking performance is that running everything in the kernel—whether natively or via eBPF—is the best way to achieve high performance. However, the latest results tell a different story: user-space implementations like Linkerd and Istio significantly outperform kernel-based approaches. What’s going on?

Very intrigued to know how user space networking can be outperforming kernel-space networking.
