the existing transfers.)
The idea is that curl_multi_socket() calls a given callback with information
about what socket to wait for what action on, and the callback only gets
called if the status of that socket has changed.
The idea is that curl_multi_socket_action() calls a given callback with

In the API draft from before, we have a timeout argument on a per socket
basis and we also allowed curl_multi_socket() to pass in an 'easy handle'
instead of socket to allow libcurl to shortcut a lookup and work on the
affected easy handle right away. Both these turned out to be bad ideas.

The timeout argument was removed from the socket callback since after much
thinking I came to the conclusion that we really don't want to handle

We have done a test runs with up to 9000 connections (with a single active

Documentation
The curl_multi_socket() API is implemented according to how it is
documented. We deem it ready to use.
