Found this on LinkedIn (haven't tested yet though): "Faucet is a new runtime for #RStats Plumber that enables async requests. Built with Rust, it guarantees the correct managment and distribution of HTTP requests across different Plumber workers."

@brodriguesco I think this is similar to valve, also written in Rust, by @josiah https://github.com/JosiahParry/valve

@jrosell @brodriguesco @jospueyo took it for a spin performance difference is negligible.

`faucet` requires you to make a facuet specific entrypoint. faucet has debug logs built in which is nice! That's on my timeline. But it also pre-allocates plumper workers. So if theyre not being used they're eating up space. Compared to valve which spawns with only 1 worker and despawns them after an unsued amount of time.
He beat me to the video punch! But my video is gonna rock.
