actually, nothing special about this implementation. just another event loop written in rust for educational purposes and joy

in tests it shows seamless migration from uvloop for my scraping framework https://github.com/BitingSnakes/silkworm

with APIs (fastapi) it shows only one advantage: better p99, uvloop is faster about 10-20% in the synthetic run

currently, i am forking on the win branch to give it windows support that uvloop lacks

The p99 improvement over raw throughput matches what I've seen with napi-rs too — Rust's predictable memory management helps with tail latencies even when average perf is similar to C implementations. Windows support gap for uvloop is a real pain point in production, so that alone could justify the switch for some teams.

added support for Windows in v0.1.3
