Hi,

do you have an estimate what the overhead of using an AsyncResponse is, if you send back a sync. response for the majority of cases?

Use Case:

Implement a resource method that retains the opportunity for handling a request asynchronously but decides thatonly when the method is actually invoked. IOW, when the method determines that a synchronous response is fine, it simply invokes the async response right away.

Does that significanly affect performance or resource usage?
