Use `run_in_threadpool` or not?

Thank you again for this useful repo.
I have a question regarding your tip 23. I wonder what the differences between using def
function and run_in_threadpool
in async
function. They works the same way to my knowledge. My use case is that I'm using google_storage_python
to download file from GCS but it's a blocking I/O library
@hmbui-noze I can recommend an amazing book about Async programming, the code examples are based on Rust, but the principles can applied to any programming language:

In tip 23, run_in_threadpool
is useful, when you can't use def
router, i.e. you have other async
parts.
