[Issue]: In an async group chat with function calling, does having multiple user proxy agents make things go faster?

[tyler-suard-parker]

Describe the issue

From what I understand, only a user_proxy agent can execute a function. If I have 3 agents in an async chat who can call 1 different function each, should I have 3 different user proxy agents to execute those functions? Or is it ok to just have one user_proxy agent? Will one setup perform faster than the other? Thank you for your help.

yess, it is okay to have one user proxy agent, it will work fine in that case if each agent has their own function

I think the answer is no, unless you have constructed things so that they can happen concurrently instead of simply async. This is easy to do in the core API now
