buffer

A stream adapter that buffers elements to improve performance when downstream tends to be busy (eg. db compactions). In comparison to buffered it works not only with Futures but any element type as there is no async.

Usage

use buffer::StreamBufferExt;
use futures::stream;
use futures::StreamExt;

async fn slow_cpu_heavy_operation(x: i32) -> i32 {
    // Simulate a CPU-heavy operation with a delay
    sleep(Duration::from_millis(500)).await;
    x
}

async fn mock_db_insert(x: i32) {
    // Simulate a database insert operation that can become slow during IO bounded compactions
    sleep(Duration::from_millis(100)).await;
}


let collected: Vec<i32> = 
    stream::iter(0..100_000)
        .map(|x| slow_cpu_heavy_operation(x))
        .buffer(1000)
        .map(|x| mock_db_insert(x))
        .collect().await;
