If you've ever used CoreNetwork you might get the idea, because CFNetwork is event-driven, rather then the shitty thread-per-socket style that CS students are taught. So you can easily handle a zillion connections with CoreNetwork.

Too bad you can't avoid blocking at least occasionally with the event- driven APIs, meaning you still have to use threads to avoid it completely. And I fail to see what's so bad about having one thread per socket. Is it because Threads Are Hard?
