After some simple tests, I found that it takes several more times to execute the function when there is only one active task.


To be concrete, the function ran 6 times per second when there was only one active task, and the number went up to 200 times per second when there are 3 tasks.

What is the value of IO_IDLE_WAIT_INTERVAL?
 
According to curl documentation, you should use curl_multi_timeout to figure out the needed timeout for the select call.
 
Please read http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_multi_fdset.html
 
 
 
BTW, consider use curl_multi_socket_action API instead of curl_multi_perform.

 Maybe when there are more than one transfer, the application call curl_multi_perform or curl_multi_socket_action more frequently.
 This is indeed wrong usage, as the calls should be done according to events (socket/timeout).
 
 Please give us more details when you call curl_multi_perform/curl_multi_socket_action from your code (what is the trigger to those calls), and when you call it with CURL_SOCKET_TIMEOUT...
