 Note that exactly what threads things run in is very specific, and aimed to
 keep maximum compatibility with old synchronous code. See
-"Synchronous code & Threads" below for a full explanation.
+"Synchronous code & Threads" below for a full explanation. By default,
+``sync_to_async`` will run all synchronous code in the program in the same
+thread for safety reasons; you can disable this for more performance with
+``@sync_to_async(thread_sensitive=False)``, but make sure that your code does
+not rely on anything bound to threads (like database connections) when you do.

 The ASGI server should set the pseudo ``:authority`` header value to
 be the same value as the request that triggered the push promise.
+
+Zero Copy Send
+--------------
+
+Zero Copy Send allows you to send the contents of a file descriptor to the
+HTTP client with zero copy (where the underlying OS directly handles the data
+transfer from a source file or socket without loading it into Python and
+writing it out again).
+
+ASGI servers that implement this extension will provide
+``http.response.zerocopysend`` in the extensions part of the scope::
+
+    "scope": {
+        ...
+        "extensions": {
+            "http.response.zerocopysend": {},
+        },
+    }
+
+The ASGI framework can initiate a zero-copy send by sending a message with
+the following keys. This message can be sent at any time after the
+*Response Start* message but before the final *Response Body* message,
+and can be mixed with ``http.response.body``. It can also be called
+multiple times in one response. Except for the characteristics of
+zero-copy, it should behave the same as ordinary ``http.response.body``.
+
+Keys:
+
+* ``type`` (*Unicode string*): ``"http.response.zerocopysend"``
+
+* ``file`` (*file descriptor object*): An opened file descriptor object
+  with an underlying OS file descriptor that can be used to call
+  ``os.sendfile``. (e.g. not BytesIO)
+
+* ``offset`` (*int*): Optional. If this value exists, it will specify
+  the offset at which sendfile starts to read data from ``file``.
+  Otherwise, it will be read from the current position of ``file``.
+
+* ``count`` (*int*): Optional. ``count`` is the number of bytes to
+  copy between the file descriptors. If omitted, the file will be read until
+  its end.
+
+* ``more_body`` (*bool*): Signifies if there is additional content
+  to come (as part of a Response Body message). If ``False``, response
+  will be taken as complete and closed, and any further messages on
+  the channel will be ignored. Optional; if missing defaults to
+  ``False``.
+
+After calling this extension to respond, the ASGI application itself should
+actively close the used file descriptor - ASGI servers are not responsible for
+closing descriptors.
