And that emphatically does NOT use threads in this case.
Yes, you are right, so I said "uses LibUv indirectly", without adding "with
threads", now.
Only for complete the topic, I also mentioned require('fs'). I'm not sure
the scope of the use of threads in filesystem, but AFAIK (in Windows?) lib
uv could use a pool of thread for some operations that are not easily
mapped to async IO in host operating system
I don't know the current state of the art, but:

Back to original question, all the magic goes to libuv, without the need of
blocking js thread. And it was mentioned the need of many sockets (then
connection pool) in case the server doesn't allow the use of the same one
for multiple operations.
