Description

Pull request https://github.com/penberg/limbo/pull/40 added Windows support using the synchronous I/O API we also use on Darwin. Let's switch to IOCP API for asynchronous I/O on Windows.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the current synchronous I/O implementation on Windows in the codebase, research IOCP API usage in Rust (e.g., via mio or tokio), and plan the migration to asynchronous I/O.
