Abstract
An asynchronous method is implemented in a manner that reduces the amount of runtime overhead needed to execute the asynchronous method. The data elements needed to suspend an asynchronous method to await completion of an asynchronous operation, to resume the asynchronous method at a resumption point, and to provide a completion status of the caller of the asynchronous method are consolidated into one or two reusable objects. An asynchronous method may be associated with a distinct object pool of reusable objects. The size of a pool and the total size of all pools can be configured statically or dynamically based on runtime conditions.
