AsyncComputeTaskPool - help - freeze frame when spawning many entities.

[miketwenty1]

I'm attempting to have some filler animation or interface while my game loads in the background. However when I try to load my game, it seems that frame freezes the game.

I've tried using AsyncComputeTaskPool in a variety of ways.

Look at main.rs in these branches:

• https://github.com/miketwenty1/wonder15/blob/async-attempt/src/main.rs
• https://github.com/miketwenty1/wonder15/blob/async-non-wasm/src/main.rs
• https://github.com/miketwenty1/wonder15/blob/async-non-wasm-non-block/src/main.rs

I've tried both wasm and native, both resulting in something similar to the video posted.
Ideally I'd like this to work for WASM, but I see I'm having this issue regardless of the target build.

I've tried some method of block_on(future::poll_once(&mut task.0)) and now_or_never(&mut task.0); with no difference noticeable.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
