This class is deprecated in favor of ``RunnableWithMessageHistory``. Please refer to this tutorial for more detail: https://python.langchain.com/docs/tutorials/chatbot/ ``RunnableWithMessageHistory`` offers several benefits, including: - Stream, batch, and async support; - More flexible memory handling, including the ability to manage memory outside the chain; - Support for multiple threads.
