So are we. What platform are you running/developing your application on?

How are you communicating with cURL? We used wget as well before
converting to cURL, but it was by calling wget with a system() call.
We use the cURL libraries now, as you seem to be doing, and have zero
problems with running 100s of threads at the same time on Linux.

I could probably help out more if you could supply more information
about your current setup.
