The question basically boils down to whether the following is safe, assuming there is a new SQLAlchemy session s being created everytime this function is invoked:
async def func(s: Session):
loop = asyncio.get_running_loop()
await loop.run_in_executor(None, some_func, s)
await loop.run_in_executor(None, some_other_func, s)
...
I'm thinking that it is safe because even though the session is used in (potentially) two different threads in the two run_in_executor calls, those two calls are not concurrent, since the second call won't be executed until the first one completes. This means the session is not accessed concurrently. Am I right in thinking that?
Got a response from Mike Bayer himself (thanks again for the fast response!): https://github.com/sqlalchemy/sqlalchemy/issues/5828. TLDR is that yes it is safe as long as the access is not concurrent.
