The whole tokio stack is having an initial 0.1 release soon. It's incredibly highly anticipated.

I'm waiting to refactor four of my services to use tokio + hyper + amqp as soon as possible. It'll be fun...
Are you expecting to see any benefits from the async stuff in particular?
I'm mostly doing IO in these services and now I scale them up with threads and processes. I'm not using CPU so much so I could live with a small amount of threads doing async IO, because I don't need to process the messages in sync anyways. I have plenty of RAM to spare and could live with bigger memory usage.
