Snippet that shows how the POC for tracing the uvloop execution works

test_dns_uvloop_tracing.py

asyncio.set_event_loop_policy(uvloop.EventLoopPolicy())

trace_context = contextvars.ContextVar('trace_context')

        delta = loop.time() - trace_context.get().dns_request_begin
        print(f"DNS request took {delta}")

loop.run_until_complete(main(loop))
