ValueTask & Mengelakkan Peruntukan

// Task<T>: always allocates, even when result is cached
public async Task<string> GetCached_Task() =>
    _cache.TryGetValue("key", out var v) ? v : await FetchAsync();

// ValueTask<T>: zero allocation when value is cached
public ValueTask<string> GetCached_ValueTask() =>
    _cache.TryGetValue("key", out var v)
        ? ValueTask.FromResult(v)  // no allocation
        : new ValueTask<string>(FetchAsync()); // allocation only when needed

public interface IProductRepository
{
    // ValueTask: often completes synchronously from cache
    ValueTask<Product?> GetByIdAsync(int id);

    // Task: always async (DB query)
    Task<List<Product>> SearchAsync(string query);
}

// Consumption is identical to Task:
var product = await _repo.GetByIdAsync(42);
var results = await _repo.SearchAsync("keyboard");

// In most cases, use the simple ValueTask approach.
// IValueTaskSource is for library authors needing zero-alloc async at extreme scale.

// Example: System.IO.Pipelines uses this internally
var result = await pipe.Reader.ReadAsync(ct);
// ReadAsync returns ValueTask<ReadResult> backed by IValueTaskSource
// -- zero allocation for every read even under high throughput

var vt = repo.GetByIdAsync(42);

// BAD: await multiple times
var a = await vt; // OK
var b = await vt; // UNDEFINED BEHAVIOR — don't do this!

// BAD: two concurrent awaits
var t1 = vt.AsTask(); // converts to Task (safe to share)
var t2 = vt.AsTask(); // second AsTask() on same ValueTask — WRONG

// GOOD: if you need multiple awaits, convert to Task
var task = repo.GetByIdAsync(42).AsTask();
var r1 = await task;
var r2 = await task; // OK — Task can be awaited multiple times

// USE ValueTask when:
// 1. The method often completes synchronously (cache hit)
// 2. The method is on a hot path called millions of times/sec
// 3. You're writing a library with high-throughput I/O

// USE Task when:
// 1. The result is always async
// 2. The method might be awaited multiple times
// 3. You use Task.WhenAll / Task.WhenAny
// 4. You store the task in a variable and share it

// HttpClient uses ValueTask-based sockets internally.
// When using HttpClient.GetAsync(), the response is awaited with Task<HttpResponseMessage>.
// For streaming large bodies, use:
using var response = await client.GetAsync(url, HttpCompletionOption.ResponseHeadersRead);
await using var stream = await response.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync();
// Stream reads internally use ValueTask<int> for zero-allocation I/O
