Introducing Java Async I/O

I’ve been playing with Java recently. It turns out Java has two archaic I/O stacks neither of which is adequate for modern days. That’s why I developed an async I/O package.

My package doesn’t replace the existing I/O stacks. It’s an upgrade on top of the old InputStream and OutputStream that enables async interaction to optimize CPU usage and responsiveness of the consuming app.

The entire source code is available on GitHub:

Start with the README file, and you’ll find links to the binaries as well as to the documentation. Go through the doc articles and the API reference, and if this paradigm makes sense to you, try it in an app. I’ll be glad to hear your feedback.
