What's the "implementation" difference from sleeping a long time and an  
infinite loop? The sleep call could be replaced  by a lock on a mutex that  
takes a lot of time to acquire the access, does that make difference? I  
always need to be free to accept new connections...
Thanks again for your response, I'll try some more tests soon ;)
