Wake now, my merry friends! Forget the nightly noises! Ring a ding dillo del! I recently joined Antithesis, where I'm building a new browser testing framework called Bombadil. We're doing this openly, no stealth mode shenanigans this time:

With mio polling and some lock optimizations, the new client is now as fast as the tokio-tungstenite-based one! Continuing the hunt for some more wins...

Bombadil is going to use a very stripped down fork of chromiumoxide soon. Raw CDP only, no cumbersome abstractions. Non-blocking websocket in std::thread, no more tokio and async Rust in the project.
