[Grub-dev] Perl / POE client

[Eriam Schaffter]

Hello

Here is a POE client that does HTTP get and DNS requests in parallel
(without blocking). It is essentially based on the code of the perl client
that appeared on the list a few days ago.

It rearranges the request's results in the appropriate order after all
requests from the work unit is completed. Is this step necessary or the
server doesnt care about the order in the ARC file ? Anyway I plan to keep
it running for some time and see how it goes.

There is a few dependencies to install if you want to use it but really
not a big deal. I havnt done performance testing already. It's in the
pipeline though. I also would like to make sure the arc that I send is
valid, should the server control that ?

Please make comments if you like to :)

Thanks

Eriam
