Hi,
sorry, I still don't understand it
As I know, if my application only had single thread, this thread would stay
in event loop until all respective responses are received ( with regards to
all requests )
The application needs to send 2 kinds of requests, one would be held by
server and the server responds either there is something which needs to be
returned before timeout -or- timeout occurs ( return nothing ).
Based on this, the thread needs to wait for the reponse as I mention above,
then can keep going down. But it would delay the process for "another" kind
of  requests.

Please clarify it, thanks

Regds,
