So I'm not totally sure what exactly is wanted from this issue, but I've just published the wasmtime-async crate that probably handles this problem -- though not yet handling wasi, due to limitations in the API, though hopefully these will be fixed soon-ish with https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/1600.

If so, I've opened https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/1672 for suggesting inclusion and/or referring to it from wasmtime's docs, to see what happens :)

@Ekleog url is missing the /crates path: wasmtime-async. Also, nicely done!

@Ekleog - This is fantastic!
I will get started with it today.

Hello, apologies for asking this as an issue, but I'm not sure where else to ask questions of this nature.

Is it possible to deschedule and re-schedule running wasm tasks? I'd like to run dozens or hundreds of wasm programs in an app server of sorts, but running each in its own thread seems a tad excessive.

Is it possible to hand to running wasm code functions which are effectively async, and deschedule the wasm program while it is waiting on IO?

I've opened https://github.com/bytecodealliance/rfcs/pull/2 for what it might look like supporting this in wasmtime itself, curious to hear what others think!
