The net control flow in my program is roughly like this:
1. Connect to machine A (thus obtaining socket A)
2. Accept some connection from (any) machine B (thus obtaining socket B)
3. Transfer data from B to A until close or similar.
The program is supposed to be a load balancer that accepts connections
from WAN and distributes them to a bunch of machines on a LAN. This is
why it doesn't actually care about the data. It only needs to accept
connections from a WAN and connect them with some machines on the LAN.
I think that doing the data transfer manually in the load balancer
isn't a very good idea, from a robustness and throughput point of view.
Let me know if I need to clarify more.
Thanks.
