I summarised my opinions here: https://calpaterson.com/async-python-is-not-faster.html https://calpaterson.com/async-python-is-not-faster.html TL;DR: It's not faster, prone to bugs if used incorrectly and adds new failure modes. There are some good reasons to use it but they are narrow and I think most real world usage is inappropriate.
