Linus Torvalds pushed an experimental Linux kernel patch series developed with Anthropic's Claude Code, according to LWN, which reported it on October 14.
In an 8-thread same-file read test, he reports throughput rising from about 9.9 to 10.4 million reads per second to 30 to 33 million, and kernel clock cycles per read falling from about 2950 to 725.
The patch remains in an experimental branch and has not been merged into the Linux 7.4 mainline.
