This is a hiring challenge for the intern role for core media team at our company. The goal of this challenge is to write a UDP network writer that performs significantly better than the baseline implementation.

In the benchs_test.go file, you will find a benchmark test that measures the performance of the UDP network writer. Your task is to improve the performance of the writer so that it is at least 2 times faster than the baseline implementation.

To run the benchmark test, use the following command:

go test -benchmem -bench BenchmarkConnections

To submit your solution, please create a pull request to this repository with your implementation. Make sure to include a description of your solution and any trade-offs you made.

The golang benchmark test logs are of the following structure:

BenchmarkConnections-8   	<number of iterations per second>	       <time for processing each iteration> ns/op    <bytes allocated per iteration> B/op   <number of allocations per iteration> allocs/op

Your solution will be evaluated based on the following criteria (in this order):

• Number of terations per second
• Time for processing each iteration
• Code quality, E.g. readability, maintainability, and performance
• Explanation of the solution and trade-offs
• Bytes allocated per iteration
• Number of allocations per iteration

• Maybe use a kernel thats well documented? Linux perhaps?
• Maybe use latest technologies? iouring? eBPF? sendmmmsg?
