With a client in the picture, synchronous implies sitting at a locked screen. With perhaps not even a progress bar.

Anything that calls out to an external system, whether that's a DB query, a network request, or even accessing files on disk, should really be asynchronous. Why tie up a thread waiting for a request to complete when you could let the OS tell you when it's finished and let your thread get on with something else instead? :)

I loathe synchronous design for the reasons described in the "Synchronous Messaging" section of this article[^].

Yeah when one applies a few brain cells the answer is obvious - browser paints the screen and then fills the data control :doh:
