Q:

How std::async works: why it invokes copy/move so many times?

Basically the title
#include <iostream>
#include <future>

class A
{
    public:
    A () {};
    A (const A& a) {std::cout<<"A copy\n";};
    A (A&& a) noexcept {std::cout<<"A move\n";};
    ~A ()  {std::cout<<"A dest\n";};
    void fun () { std::cout<<"fun\n";}
};

int main()
{
    A a;
    std::future<void> f = std::async([](A a) { a.fun(); }, std::move(a));
    f.wait();
    return 0;
}

Result is
A move
A move
A dest
A move
fun
A dest
A dest
A dest

One move is to pass an object to an async, one to pass it to the function inside async, but one more move is doing what? 

A:

First of all, no move is needed to pass the value to async(), the forwarding reference simply binds to the original value.
Then, instead of guessing, just ask the program itself why it's making the copies/moves.

As we can see:

The first move happens when making an invoker (std::thread::__make_invoker()). An invoker is a sort of a packaged task that can be executed as a unit later.
The second move happens when packaging the invoker into an async_state object and storing it inside a future (__future_base::_S_make_async_state())
The third move takes place when invoking the lambda (_State::_M_run())

All of this is implementation detail and subject to change between versions of the standard library.
