That most likely applies to the Ping-component as well
Ping/ICMP is a blocking function, which is the main reason for my ping
component running it in a thread. Since it's running in a thread,
there is no point in doing an asynchrous DNS lookup, so my component
does a much simpler blocking DNS lookup (or reverse lookup), to avoid
needing a message pump.
I already guessed something similar, so probably running your component
in multiple threads isn't required since it already creates worker threads
as necessary, right?
