3 days agoScaling asyncio on Free-Threaded Python
The Python standard library provides the asyncio module to facilitate writing high-performance concurrent code. By leveraging async/await syntax, it provides a high level API for creating and managing event loops, coroutines, tasks, and performing asynchronous I/O operations. It is used as a foundation for Python asynchronous frameworks that provide high-performance network and web-servers, database connection libraries, distributed task queues, etc. Multiple libraries and frameworks, such as FastAPI and aiohttp, are built on top of asyncio.
