Re: DNS lookup freezes easy handles (multi interface)

Maybe I was a little unclear in my description, here are the steps to
reproduce the case:

Add three URLs to a text file, example:
http://slashdot.org/djsadjsa
http://slasdot.org/qwerty
http://slashdot.org/zxcvb

Then compile and run hiperfifo.c, and cat the text file to hiper.fifo.
Notice how the first transfer completes almost instantly, while the
others are stalled until a timeout is reached. Run everything again
and it should run without depending on the timeout (until you clear
the DNS cache).

Thanks,
Emil
