You did notice lib/Event.pod?

Hm hm. Admittedly, Event-tcp is a little bit cryptic. It provides
basic remote procedure calls using pack/unpack for marshalling. You can
also implement your own marshalling. Be aware that performance will not
be as good as an implementation written in C. I haven't done any
benchmarks, but I'm sure it's not *super* fast.
If you have further specific questions then I am happy to comment.
Hope this helps,
