Research direction
Start by locating the InputStorage component and tracing how its SmallVec passes messages between operations. Build careful benchmarks comparing SmallVec with the mentioned channel-based strategies, including tokio, futures, and async-std. Done means the throughput results are clear and support a justified implementation choice.

Description
Currently our InputStorage component uses a SmallVec to hold messages as they pass from one operation to another. This has been okay for performance, but it's possible that a channel-based approach could be superior. We should do some careful benchmarking and try out different message passing strategies to see what can achieve the best throughput.
