title: ServiceStack no server-side async support
body: <p>A buddy of mine told me in the past he had looked at ServiceStack.  Said it looked good but that it had no async support so in his book, it's not an option to use this framework (no good if no async) and I have to sorta agree.</p>
  
  <p>Unless ServiceStack has added async, not sure if this is a good choice for me.</p>
  
  <p>It makes me wonder a) is stackoverflow truly using this if there is no async? b) if yes to a, then it obviously must be a highly customized version of it that probably DOES have async?</p>
  
  <p>I am sure someone from stackoverflow can answer this post.</p>
