The issue currently, and the one that the article above points out, is that right now you can't use async in a single-threaded context without paying for synchronization overhead anyway. All of the provided constructs must be Send and the supporting data structures all use Arc and Mutex under the hood. There's been progress in this area but it still isn't a supported use case. In order to do it you basically have to use mio or write things from scratch.
