Is it still recommended to use uvloop to improve performance?

On the third party libraries page, it says for uvloop "We highly recommend to use this instead of standard asyncio." but uvloop isn't included in the speedups on the main aiohttp page.

I noticed a uvloop PR that says "Performance claims are not so valid in newer Python versions." There are also various open PRs particularly from user "tarasko" that suggest there are some performance issues.

Is it still recommended to use uvloop?

Probably not, though it would nice to see some benchmarks. We've also had bug reports caused by uvloop (the latest still hasn't been merged even though a fix is ready, so we've had to add workarounds here).
