Drogon “it is as fast as it could be” on Windows?

[ElectroidDes]

Hello,

Drogo's description on the main page Github states the following two things:
-Drogon is a cross-platform framework, It supports Linux, macOS, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, HaikuOS, and WINDOWS.
-Drogon Use a non-blocking I/O network lib based on epoll (kqueue under macOS/FreeBSD).

However, there is no epoll, kqueue, or FreeBSD on windows.

Therefore, a few logical questions:
-Are you sure that Drogon - quotes “it is as fast as it could be” on Windows?
-Or are you sure that Drogon definitely supports windows?
-Or then, if you are sure that Drogon "it is as fast as it could be" and supports windows - then what Windows API does Drogon use to be "fast as it could be"?

Please explain.

I don’t understand - what does the “trantor” library have to do with it?

[ElectroidDes]

There is no "wepoll" in Windows.

[rbugajewski]

Drogon uses Trantor.

wepoll is available for Windows.

[ElectroidDes]

There is no "wepoll" API on Windows.
"wepoll" Windows is your fantasy.

There is no "wepoll" in Windows.
Windows has efficient "IO Completion ports" API.
Everything else is fantasy.

When you examine the wepoll library, you will find that it wraps the IOCP API to provide an API similar to epoll.
