Has anyone benchmarked Ktor's socket client implementation vs Netty, running on JVM on Linux? I'm just trying to understand roughly how much perf I'm giving up.

Hey, @rocketraman! We have some in ktor-benchmarks. If you have any performance issues with real life use case, we would be happy to help :)

Awesome, is there a summary of the results somewhere?

We don’t have direct comparison with Netty or measure recorded. We use it mainly to fix bottlenecks.

Ok, makes sense. Will give it a shot and see how it goes.

A couple of other gaps I discovered implementing my project with Ktor rather than Netty, neither of which are showstoppers but it is good to be aware of them:
• no TLS1.3 support in Ktor
• no support for SOCKS proxies in ktor-network
