There’s also a really good operational benefit if you have limits like total RAM, database connections, etc. where being able to reason about resource usage is important. I’ve seen multiple async apps struggle with things like that because async makes it harder to reason about when resources are released.

Why does async make it harder to reason about when resources are released?
