This example highlights one of the concerns I have with fibers and this approach in general. That example will still execute synchronously, taking file_get_contents() * 3, even though it is in a coroutine function. If you wanted to make it asynchronous, you'd have to do something like so: $x = [spawn fn() => file_get_contents($a), spawn fn() => file_get_contents($b), spawn fn() => file_get_contents($c)]; foreach($x as $i => $spawn) $x[$i] = await $spawn; That is quite a bit more work than I'd like just to get async file reading done. — Rob
