Research direction

Start by locating uvloop's event-loop implementation and the asyncio code around the ._ready queue; the issue names no file or test. Determine the intended public access and what congestion measurement should expose, then add coverage showing the reported queue length.

Description

Is there any way to access the length of what would normally be the ._ready queue of the event loop? I want to monitor how congested my event loop gets.
