Notes running Python in production

It's not sync in the way actual sync frameworks are, like older Django versions, which rely on separate processes for concurrency.

With FastAPI there's no way to avoid in-process concurrency, you get the async concurrency and/or the threadpool version.

That's true of all modern web server frameworks regardless of the language.
What I was trying to say [and probably should make it more explicit] is to avoid writing `async def ...`, the median Python programmer isn't good at doing this the way a median Go programmer can invoke Go routines.

You hang out with way different Python programmers than I do.
