Description

In this PR: https://github.com/scylladb/python-rs-driver/pull/151 We introduced optimization that attaches callbacks to asyncio event loop without the need to attach to GIL using add_reader method on event loop. We need to investigate if similar optimization could be done windows.

Research direction

Start by reviewing pull request #151 and the asyncio event-loop path involving add_reader; compare its callback and GIL behavior on Windows. Done means determining whether an equivalent optimization is possible on Windows and documenting the required change or limitation.
