Bruce Lowekamp commented on THRIFT-591:
---------------------------------------

I think an asio implementation should live as a parallel alternative, even if 
imported.   Bridging between asio and non-asio (in either direction) is hard to 
do without a context switch unless the code is really designed for it, and so 
not really a great option.

But it also wouldn't be the first example of a language having multiple 
transports.  

Continuous integration being fully deployed will also make such an option much 
safer to import.

is in one place)


(as the author of Rush's quote)

I remember we looked at the patch, though I didn't do it at the time and don't 
remember if ours was similar.  We were trying to add out-of-order in addition 
to asynchronous, so I think it's likely significantly different.

Regardless, I think an asio version should be written on top of the recent 
async/restructure that fb contributed.  I don't think it would be that much 
work, but don't know if I'll get time soon.
