Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but why not return true on successful
put, false otherwise? That would allow for the following:
(loop []
(let [results (get-metrics metrics)]
(when (async/>! mchan results)
(recur))))
You could terminate blocks simply by closing the channel. You also avoid
the messy higher order (quit) channel.
