TAsyncProcess is a non-visual component on the System tab of the Component Palette and is a version of the TProcessUTF8 component can handle asynchroneous execution.
The implementation of TAsyncProcess relies on immediate notifications for process output rather than a busy loop. Specifically, it typically utilizes operating system-specific mechanisms (like pipes in Windows or Unix) to capture output from the external process without actively polling for data in a busy loop.
This means that rather than continually checking if data is available (which would be inefficient and consume unnecessary CPU resources), TAsyncProcess can use events or callbacks that trigger when data is available. This is a more efficient method for handling process output, as it allows the application to respond only when necessary.
