6//! Event queue for server-side streaming.
7//!
8//! The executor writes [`StreamResponse`] events to an [`EventQueueWriter`];
9//! the HTTP layer reads them from an [`EventQueueReader`] and serializes them
10//! as SSE frames.
11//!
12//! [`InMemoryQueueWriter`] and [`InMemoryQueueReader`] are backed by a
13//! `tokio::sync::broadcast` channel, enabling multiple concurrent readers
14//! (fan-out) for the same event stream. This allows `SubscribeToTask`
15//! (resubscribe) to work even when another SSE stream is already active.

38/// events triggered `Lagged(n)` recovery in the broadcast receiver, causing
39/// per-event cost to jump from ~4µs to ~53µs. The 256 capacity pushes this
40/// inflection point above the typical event volume for most production tasks.
