   Hi Michael

   Regarding your questions:

   • using a WampChannel should be thread-safe.
   • This depends whether the method is synchronous (i.e. doesn't return a Task) or asynchronous (returns a Task). In the first case, the method blocks the WebSocket loop, and other requests can't be handled. Therefore it will take 10 seconds to complete both requests in this case. In the latter case, where the method returns a Task, the Task is awaited. In this case, once the task is returned, the WebSocket loop is no longer blocked and further requests are processed.

   Hi Elad,
   thanks for your response. That means, if I want to register methods (callee) that might take some time, I should follow the pattern?

   [WampProcedure("com.example.test")]
   public async Task<TResult> Test()
   {
       await Task.Run(() => ExpensiveOperation());
       // stuff to evaluate the result
       return result;
   }

   Hi Michael,

   Something like that. You should manage yourself the number of tasks you want to run in parallel. You can use some threading mechanism such as TPL.Dataflow (ActionBlock and etc) in order to have better control on the number of tasks running in parallel.

   Best regards,

   Hi Elad,
   just found that this issue is still open – closing it as everything works very well for me, including sharing a client between several threads. Thanks again!
