Now that we have a secured and authentication connection, the next stage in making a proper library is to make it run more than a single connection at a time. I could have used a thread per connection, of course, or even use a thread pool, but neither of those options is valid for the kind of work that I want to see, so I’m going to jump directly into async I/O in Rust and see how that goes.
The sad thing about this is that I expect that this will make me lose some/ all of the nice APIs that I get for OpenSSL in the sync mode.
