Or to rephrase my question: When I do something blocking, will "the OS" continue fetching data, for example into some buffer, which is then emptied when calling `curl_multi_socket_action()`? As you see, I have no clue how this all works. If there is something to read which will get me started, then I'd appreciate a pointer! In the end, I just want to understand what to watch out for, performance wise. ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
