Description

Problem

Pyo3 can support async calls. https://pyo3.rs/v0.13.2/ecosystem/async-await.html .

Because our rust APIs are all async calls, it is probably cheaper to directly implement them as async call from Python side?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine PyO3's async await documentation and the existing Rust async functions in the codebase to determine how to expose them as Python coroutines.
