About async.... it is there in a premature form. Try using get-modes
'network-modes on a tcp port and then tinker with read-io and write-io. But
you shouldn't want that now because it is a lot of work for you use it. In
3.0 it will probably be handler-based.
I had to figure it out because I wrote a high performance crypto server (I
work for a large financial institution) with async I./O.
The number were impressive: 150 RSA encryptions/sec on a Sun 250 [=150
encryption clients/sec = extremely fast].
I'll distribute the middleware I wrote within a week or so (the message
broker). Perhaps I add a XML/SOAP interface to it just to annoy Micro$oft :)
