Yes, this benchmark deliberately uses RDS defaults to make the comparison fairer/more general. One warning--the setting that would increase throughput the most (synchronous_commit = off) sacrifices durability to do so.

Yes, this only applies for tasks created from the same (sync or async) function. If tasks are creating other tasks, anything is possible.

It's documented behavior for the low-level API (e.g. asyncio.call_soon https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-eventloop.html#asy... ). More broadly, this has been a stable behavior of the Python standard li

It's been a stable (and documented) behavior of the Python standard library for almost a decade now. It's possible it may change--nothing is ever set in stone--but that would be a large change in Python that would come with plenty

That's the cool thing about this behavior--it doesn't matter how complex your program is, your async functions start in the same order they're called (though after that, they may interleave and finish in any order).

Looking at the trial example, the way I would solve it is that when the user clicks "start trial", that starts a small synchronous workflow that first creates a database entry, then enqueues the onboarding workflow, then returns.

Yes, agree the correspondence is close, the primary difference is in form factor and not in underlying guarantees (but form factor matters! Building this as a library was technically tricky, but unlocks a lot of use cases). Reading the Orle
