Is it possible to build a tokio compatible library that might not be so heavy weight? Maybe this a moot point since libraries would use tokio as a dependency anyway.

Smol is essentially that iirc.

Can you elaborate on "heavy weight"? Tokio lets you opt-in to only what you need via feature flags. This lets you use a small subset of the lines of code & transitive deps.
