This is actually backwards for botulinum. Boiling denatures the toxin, but doesn't kill the critter; you need to use a higher temperature, e.g. that produced by pressure cooking / canning. So I'd be curious what bacteria are

Let me break it down for you: Suppose I run asyncio.start_server() and I want it to run forever. What am I supposed to asyncio.gather()) on without making stuff up? [Edit] Production code or it didn't happen.

Not sure. A cursory look suggests it runs file ops in a thread pool. The problem that I'm aware of is at a deeper level and has to do with the ability (or lack thereof) to set nonblocking on file descriptors associated with disk files.

I think I hit a foul ball there, as run_in_executor() is for a threadpool. So yeah you are running inside of run_forever() or run_until_complete(), we just don't see it here, and that's where your sending things to run in a differ

You need to run the executor somewhere ( loop.run_forever() or loop.run_until_complete() ), that can be in the current thread or a separate thread, keep in mind Python is still conceptually a single core. Things I've found particularly

I do Redis in a thread pool. Did this before aioredis came out, have kept doing it because I know it and it works. Have used the same pattern for a few other things it works so well.
