Hi!
Thanks for writing me back.
I think you misunderstood, sorry I didn't explain myself. Many clients is
all the users visiting a website in a Silo. The Silo connects to the Main
Server using cURL for every user visit. That connection is need it to parse
some XML and get a response back. With a great amount of traffic the cURL
connection gets delayed, you can see in Apache a big amount of Threads open
to the Main Server. What I'm looking here is a way to increase speed between
the Cilo and the Main Cluster and I don't know if having a system that does
multiple cURL connections at the same time, instead one for each client in a
different thread, will improve speed.
Make sense?

Thanks again!

Yago
