Async-scoped
Enables controlled spawning of non-'static
futures when
using the async-std or
tokio executors.
Motivation
Present executors (such as async-std, tokio, etc.) all
support spawning 'static
futures onto a thread-pool.
However, they do not support spawning futures with lifetime
smaller than 'static
.
While the future combinators such as for_each_concurrent
offer concurrency, they are bundled as a single Task
structure by the executor, and hence are not driven
in parallel. This can be seen when benchmarking a reasonable
number (> ~1K) of I/O futures, or a few CPU heavy futures.
Usage
The API is meant to be a minimal wrapper around efficient
executors. Users may use "use-async-std", or the
"use-tokio" features, to obtain a specific global executor implementation.
These features provide TokioScope
and AsyncScope
that
support spawning, and blocking.
However, none of those features are necessary -
you may freely implement your own executor. See
docs.rs for detailed
documentation.
