[OT] Sync vs ASync Server Comms

Hi All,

I was reading an article about Server/Client communications using a Rest service and the author seemed to have a downer on using the Sync (as opposed to ASync) methods of making a request and receiving a reply. Also I've noticed it being generally discouraged in quite a few other places when I was searching for 3rd Party Network Libraries. However, I can't find any reason behind it? Does anyone have any idea why ASync transactions are better than Sync transactions? Or is it just Sync'ism? lol

Have a Good Weekend!

Thanks
Dave
