Today I found another blog post on the "usual" topic:
http://mailinator.blogspot.com/2008/02/kill-myth-please-nio-is-not-faster-than.html

Is this FUD or a new trend that MINA should take care of?

Is there any plan to support standard IO as a transport for MINA based
applications?

It would be useful to understand how a MINA based application could
"switch back" to multithreaded standard IO and result in better
throughput on modern JVM/OS.

Thank you,
Stefano
