• ... that Tokio uses a work stealing scheduler to implement an asynchronous runtime for the Rust programming language? Source: "Recently announced Tokio 1.0 supports TCP, UDP, timers, a multi-threaded, work-stealing scheduler, and more."
  • ALT1: ... that Tokio provides an asynchronous runtime and standard library for the Rust programming language? Source: "Rust Asynchronous Runtime Tokio Reaches 1.0", "...An asynchronous version of the standard library."

• Article was expanded 13× between September and time of nomination. Meets newness and length requirements, no close para or neutrality issues. QPQ exempt (only four prior credits found). Hooks are naturally techy, but I like ALT0 because "work stealing scheduler" sounds kinda funny. Added a sentence about AWS Lambda and Discord using the library. Should be good to go.

  • @Legoktm and DigitalIceAge: While I agree that "work stealing scheduler" is quite good, I know what this means and even I don't know what the hell this means, you know what I'm sayin'? Any way to cut back on the jargon at the of the hook a bit? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 19:32, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
    • @Theleekycauldron: Maybe rearrange the sentence to place "work stealing scheduler" at the end (and therefore put emphasis on it): ... that the Tokio runtime for Rust uses a work stealing scheduler? DigitalIceAge (talk) 19:43, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
      • Ah, very noice—I'll promote in a second. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 19:45, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
      • @DigitalIceAge: rearranging it sounds good to me. I would like to keep it as "Rust programming language" though, since a different "Rust" has been in the news more recently. Legoktm (talk) 19:58, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
        • Good thinking. DigitalIceAge (talk) 20:00, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

• ALT2: ... that the asynchronous Tokio runtime for the Rust programming language uses a work stealing scheduler? Source: "Recently announced Tokio 1.0 supports TCP, UDP, timers, a multi-threaded, work-stealing scheduler, and more." Legoktm (talk) 20:09, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
