> The I/O Poller used to support virtual threads doing blocking networking I/O has been significantly refactored in the loom repo. There are several improvements that should be brought to main line:
>
> 1. New poller mode that uses a read poller per carrier, this is beneficial in some workloads.
> 2. Better cleanup/recovery in the event if a file descriptor or memory can't be allocated during initializatio.
> 3. NativeThread changed to cache native thread ID and avoid JNI call to current0 for each blocking I/O op.
>
> The changes have been in the loom repo for a long time, this is why the copyright header is updated to 2025 (not 2026) in some cases.
>
> Testing: tier1 + tier2.
