There is a difference between single-threaded and multi-threaded, but if you use `io.concurrent` or `io.async`, you are expected to have your code assume multi-threaded enviroment. And there is no visible behavior change between blocking and non-blocking backend, assuming you are not calling external libraries that do their own I/O. So code written and tested on blocking threaded I/O, will work just fine on async implementation. All I/O operations are the yield point.
