Confirmation of AIO

Server NGINX
1

Hi All,

I’m trying to understand the advantages of AIO and how using it with
Nginx
can improve performance.

I’ve compiled Nginx from source with the AIO option.

I’ve enabled AIO in my Nginx configuration.

How can I confirm that its working? If the server is serving pages,
does it
mean that its using AIO?

Thanks

What OS are you using?

I don’t think AIO works in Linux unless you’re using O_DIRECT. But with
O_DIRECT you don’t get file cache.
