he was referring to fs.readSync (node) which has also has fs.read, which is async. there is also no parallelism in node. i don't see it as very useful or elegant to integrate any form for parallelism or concurrency into every imaginable api. depends on context of course. but generalized, just no. if a kind of io takes a microsecond, why bother.
