How can we make Action Cable really rock?

Action Cable is one of the most noticeable features in Rails 5. Two years have passed since its announcement, but the framework still seems to be incomplete: tons of performance and reliability-related questions, lack of testing support, and heavy dependency on Rails.

In this talk, I’d like to discuss how we can make Action Cable better and should we expect a bright future or not.
