This does point out one of my secret hopes for SMB: that a file server's maintainers will care enough about file throughput that we'll finally get a centralized, official way of doing async file I/O that we can share with SFTP, FTP, and HTTP :).
I got excited by the title, but this all seems to be able giving non-filesystems a file-system like API.
What are you referring to as non-filesystems?
Ah, sorry, misread the above.
If I've missed something, please let me know, but I couldn't find an async interface for writing to actual file systems.
In Twisted? There isn't one, really, which is exactly the issue. There are various operating system interfaces for this but none of them are great.
What's the asyncio spin on this? We server like uvicorn are all writing logs, are they too just punting on the blocking nature of writing to filesystems? Chris
