+=item aio_nop $callback->()
+This is a special request - it does nothing in itself and is only used for
+side effects, such as when you want to add a dummy request to a group so
+that finishing the requests in the group depends on executing the given
+code.
+While this request does nothing, it still goes through the execution
+phase and still requires a worker thread. Thus, the callback will not
+be executed immediately but only after other requests in the queue have
+entered their execution phase. This can be used to measure request
+latency.
 =item IO::AIO::aio_sleep $fractional_seconds, $callback->()  *NOT EXPORTED*
 Mainly used for debugging and benchmarking, this aio request puts one of
 the request workers to sleep for the given time.
