The reason to have those calls is to enable use the following use case:<br class="">

- <send interest><br class="">
- call io::run() (face::processEvents)<br class="">

as soon as data is retrieved, io::run unblocks.<br class="">

What pause() does is cancels any pending async_read operations if it is known that no new data is expected to be received (no interest filter defined and all interests are satisfied). When there are no more jobs left in io_service, io::run() unblocks.<br class="">

Explicitly stopping io_service is additional and unnecessary burden on applications.<br class="">
