A Rust library for asynchronous but unsynchronized (single-threaded)
communication primitives, primarily channels and semaphores with an API that is
designed to be as similar to tokio::sync as possible.
Most async executors use multi-threaded runtimes and consequently, most
synchronization primitives are implemented to be thread-safe, thus incurring
the associated synchronization overhead.
By restricting their use to single-threaded/thread-local tasks only, the
synchronization overhead can be entirely avoided, resulting in up to 10x faster
channel operations.
To use this crate, add the following to your Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
