WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
I think I was the first person who reported this in 2019: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/59087
It’s a pretty interesting problem. While everyone assumed that futures are lightweight and thereby more efficient than threads, there’s a couple interesting performance gotchas like this one that apply for certain libraries and applications.
Due to those I’m still m curious for how many applications the async model is actually a net win or a net loss. Too bad we don’t have time to implement all applications in both ways to gather more data.
