Thread pool for std::future

[olzhabay]

When calling std::async, it creates new thread. Better having thread pool and enqueue to it functions and lambdas with return of std::future.

Hey, I think you refer some of the routines at the dfs client code:

VeloxDFS/src/client/dfs.cc

Line 211 in c67a521

auto future = async(launch::async, [](unique_ptr<tcp::socket> socket) -> bool {

In this part of the code it is totally unnecessary to using async as we create a future and right after block for that future. I think it was part of the code that was written very fast. We will get back to it later

VeloxDFS/src/client/dfs.cc

Line 928 in c67a521

auto future = async(launch::async, [](unique_ptr<tcp::socket> socket) -> bool {

For this part yes thread pool is a great idea indeed, maybe you can submit a PR with the thread pool. Still it might make the code more complicating only adding some slightly performance improvement. Maybe you can suggest an easy way of implement thread pool.

Thanks for the idea!
