Not to take away from the article's explanation, and I am sorry, but Python's asyncio is a pathetically inferior choice to newer Python's no-GIL threading. The former implicitly does not parallelize, whereas the latter does. This is in stark contrast to Rust's asyncio, like with Tokio, which I believe does parallelize. This is a sufficiently significant loss that I think it's silly to use asyncio at all anymore.
