Is there any asio example in the docs, which demostrate this
Does the io_service expose the queue of request/connections
as I have not seen such an api ?

or do you mean that server should be structured to maintain its
_own_ queue.( as apposed to the queue in io_service)
Request are then handled from this internal queue?
