Whenver one writes a server that is doing network communications
with multiple clients, its *always* easier to make it multi-threaded.
If you try to write a single-threaded server, and try to handle your
own socket polling and dispatching, then you are doomed to re-invent
threads, badly, whether you are aware of it or not.
