The async API can't however since it may receive concurrent requests and it must make sure that each request is written in its entirety without interleaving.

Ah, okay. I'd been seeing a bunch of stuff on Twitter about how Rust has been favoring async I/O and I saw what looks like some Python-style aio in redis-rs. So all this makes a whole lot more sense to me now. Thank you for clarifying some of this stuff!

I'm gonna keep checking some other libraries in Rust and Go so I can get a better picture of the performance landscape among the 3 languages. This was just one chapter of that story and I really appreciate you being a part of it. 🙂
