    I recommend using a threadpool: https://crates.io/crates/threadpool It saves you the work and runtime of handling, starting and stoping threads

    nice point. I think for cases that you mentioned there are two options: 1. If work that should be done is lightweight, tokio tasks or futures can be used. 2. if tasks are heavy and long running, there are some libraries that can execute tasks in threads - https://github.com/rust-threadpool/rust-threadpool , https://github.com/crossbeam-rs/crossbeam
