In all my tests I was using blocking (at least from the application's
point-of-view) sockets. On Linux I used the standard pthreads library, which
is kernel-based, although the implementation of the threading library
should, hopefully, be irrelevant. I can't say much about my Solaris tests
until I can get back on the machine.
