a) this is not necessarily true. some languages/toolkits/oses don't
   even provide (useful, that is complete) async i/o, so the use of
   threads is the only solution.
   also, its surely a question of preference (some like to go the hard way,
   you know :).
b) an app that is supposed to be really efficient usually won't malloc()
   as wild.
