    Now that the GIL (global interpreter lock) is out of the way, running an AsyncIO workload in free-threaded Python becomes a complex ordeal. Additionally, all of the consequences of GIL-first design become baggage. An experimental Rust-backed async multi-threaded runtime called TonIO (a nod to Rust’s own Tokio async runtime) tries to solve post-GIL Python concurrency while keeping mental overhead minimal.
