    [$] Buffer sizes for FUSE io_uring

    Description:
    The Filesystem in
    Userspace (FUSE) subsystem provides a way to service filesystem
    requests from a user-space server, which moves the format-handling code out
    of the kernel. The FUSE server can use the io_uring facility for better performance, but Bernd Schubert is concerned that
    memory is being wasted because the current implementation has a single,
    large buffer size that is excessive for small I/O operations. He led a discussion on that topic
    in the filesystem track of the 2026 Linux Storage,
    Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit in Zagreb, Croatia.
