>Think about it, if you write a lot of async code, chances are you have a ton of latency, waiting on I/O, disk, network etc. Using Rust for this in the first place isn't the wisest since performance isn't as important, most of your performance is wasted 'waiting' on things. Besides Rust wants purity and I/O is gritty little dirt.

But isn't most code going to perform some I/O at some time? Whether is calling an API, writing on disk or writing to a DB?
