        more), and eventually resume_writing() is called once when the

    The user should implement this interface.  They can inherit from

    factory to a utility function (e.g., EventLoop.create_connection()).

    When the connection is made successfully, connection_made() is
    called with a suitable transport object.  Then data_received()
    will be called 0 or more times with data (bytes) received from the
    transport; finally, connection_lost() will be called exactly once

    Important: this has been added to asyncio in Python 3.7
    *on a provisional basis*!  Consider it as an experimental API that
    might be changed or removed in Python 3.8.

    Event methods, such as `create_server` and `create_connection`,
    accept factories that return protocols that implement this interface.

    The idea of BufferedProtocol is that it allows to manually allocate
    and control the receive buffer.  Event loops can then use the buffer
    provided by the protocol to avoid unnecessary data copies.  This
    can result in noticeable performance improvement for protocols that
    receive big amounts of data.  Sophisticated protocols can allocate
    the buffer only once at creation time.
