You might want to look at the ILU core, too, just for ideas. Somewhat to my surprise, the link http://www2.parc.com/istl/projects/ILU/ still works. The protocol/transport distinction is at <ftp://ftp.parc.xerox.com/pub/ilu/2.0b1/manual-html/manual_14.html#SEC475>. The key requirements for an async loop, IMO, are the normal file descriptor state change notifications, support for timer events, and support for time-bounded work tasks (that get run when nothing is happening). The Tornado IOLoop does all three of these; also worth taking a look at: <http://www.tornadoweb.org/>.
