bdh call on multiple (many) securities and a single field never completes in julia 1.11.0 (and 1.11.1)

[sob727]

The issue only occurs with julia versions of the newly released 1.11.x branch

I am calling bdh on multiple (many, sometimes a couple hundred or a couple thousand) securities with one single field (px_last). That call never terminates.

Workaround:

Remove the use of @sync and @async in the bdh function in bdh.jl so it points to a synchronization issue, but I'm unable to debug any further. Can make things super slow if you call a few thousands of tickers.

Maybe due to the warning at https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/base/parallel/#Base.@async

Replacing with Threads.@spawn doesn't do the trick. Also @async was working fine on 1.10 so I'm unclear what's going on here.
