Hi,
For throughput, especially with dataframes, all the communication with the server is implemented in native code.
I've toyed with the idea of providing an async wrapper over it, but there hasn't been overwhelming demand for it, and it has some limitations (like the loss of ability to auto-flush).

You can take a look (check outand try) the prototype in the async_pool branch.

It introduces a pool of senders and allows sending multiple requests in parallel (with true parallelism, sending is still in native code and releases the GIL).

There's also an async API variant there.

PR: #66

PR description is slightly out of date, take a look at the diff.

Feedback would be very welcome.
