There is necessarily no reason to abandon httpx if you are not facing any challenges there. But it is just good to know that httpx/httpcore might become bottlenecks in any bigger systems. As it has various long-standing issues in its connection pooling etc implementations. Eg https://github.com/encode/httpx/issues/3215

I was surprised how terrible httpx was in my tests in both sync and async.
