Benches look promising! My main concern is validating correctness; implementing good concurrency primitives is always challenging. Have you looked into testing against a purpose-built concurrency model checker like tokio-rs/loom [1] or awslabs/shuttle [2]? IMO that would go a long way towards building trust in this impl.

Yep, someone suggested loom on our Reddit r/rust post as well - I'm actively working on that. Somehow I'd just never heard of loom before this.
