I saw the devblogs saying that mojo currently lacks wrappers for async fn awating, however it supports the coroutines themselves. If it is possible, how does one write a function that, say, prints whichever result is faster from functions a() and b()?
I am trying to write a Thread manager for my project that heavily interfaces with the filesystem, which means a lot of recursion, shared cache, etc
Last discussion regarding this was over a month ago, did anything change?
As you can see from my proposal, async doesn’t really exist yet. If you can, a manual state machine with GitHub - dmitry-salin/io_uring: The io_uring library for Mojo (that may need some updates) is probably going to be the best for a while, since I want us to know what async will look like before we set the io traits in stone.
As for how to determine whether a or b is faster, use the benchmark module.
