190Calling C<exit> in a coroutine will not work correctly, so do not do that. 190Calling C<exit> in a coroutine will try to do the same as calling exit
191outside the coroutine, but this is experimental. It is best not to rely on

211
212Similar to C<async>, but uses a coroutine pool, so you should not call
213terminate or join (although you are allowed to), and you get a coroutine
214that might have executed other code already (which can be good or bad :).
215
216Also, the block is executed in an C<eval> context and a warning will be
217issued in case of an exception instead of terminating the program, as
218C<async> does. As the coroutine is being reused, stuff like C<on_destroy>
219will not work in the expected way, unless you call terminate or cancel,
220which somehow defeats the purpose of pooling.
221
222The priority will be reset to C<0> after each job, otherwise the coroutine
223will be re-used "as-is".
224
225The pool size is limited to 8 idle coroutines (this can be adjusted by
226changing $Coro::POOL_SIZE), and there can be as many non-idle coros as
227required.
228
229If you are concerned about pooled coroutines growing a lot because a
230single C<async_pool> used a lot of stackspace you can e.g. C<async_pool {
231terminate }> once per second or so to slowly replenish the pool.
