+Subject: [PATCH] fix: ensure _run_data is called on a thread
+
+_run_data is not async-aware, so declaring it as an async function and
+running it in an event loop results in synchronous execution of the
+entire function. This means the Send function only returns once the
+entire _run_data function has completed. Running it on the event loop
+using run_in_executor runs the function call in a thread executor pool,
+ensuring that it doesn't block the calling thread. This is a fairly
+naive solution; a better implementation might be able to pass a future
+into _run_data, immediately fulfill that future, let the calling
+function (Send) return the RPC receipt, and continue running _run_data.
+
+(cherry picked from commit 03e7385199140fde0686f1031459f7f61e5f735b)
