Multiple Background Tasks on separate CPU-cores – Parallelising background tasks

[divyeshlakhotia]

Also worth adding that if you are trying to do something that is not particularly heavy for CPU, you can create multiple async functions within a single background task. This is a more safe approach. Are you tracking the CPU usage for your tasks?

The official answer here is yes, it is safe and supported to use asyncio in server modules. Multithreading isn’t safe, but async runs concurrent tasks that spend a long time waiting in the same thread – and if it’s all in the same thread, Anvil’s thread-local machinery doesn’t mind at all!
