FastAPI: Thread Pool and Event Loop

- Tornado is a Python web framework and asynchronous networking library designed for handling long-lived network connections. It is built to be non-blocking and uses an event loop to manage all operations. While Tornado itself does not rely on a thread pool for its core operations, it provides interfaces for integrating with thread pools (e.g., conc
Saverio Mazza • FastAPI: Thread Pool and Event Loop
A thread pool is a collection of pre-initialized threads that can be used to execute tasks. Instead of starting a new thread for each task (which can be resource-intensive), a thread from this pool is reused to perform the task. This approach is beneficial for handling multiple operations in parallel, especially when these operations are blocking a... See more
