Why isn't ktor-client using Dispatchers.IO?

[Ryan]

getting blown up for call.receive?

[nordiauwu]

They could use limited parallelism

[Ryan]

i don't know what that means yet

[nordiauwu]

see https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/2919

[Ryan]

is there a way to set it to use withContext(Dispatchers.IO) all the time?

[Ryan]

put("/") { call.receive() }

[Ryan]

now i need to do put("/") { withContext(Dispatchers.IO) {}}

[nordiauwu]

I'm not sure about the server but ktor-client uses something called ClosableBlockingDispatcher and I'm wondering why
