  * SMP setups (like the one i have here *grin*).
  * This is in comparison to the non-threaded dns, which must monitor the thread sockets
  * in a nonblocking fashion, consuming more resources to do so.
+ *
+ * NB: Yes this does scale, thank you. Even with large numbers of connecting clients
+ * in any one timeframe, they wont all connect *at the same time* therefore any argument
+ * of "but there will be thousands of threads it'll blow up" is moot, ive tested this and
+ * there will only ever be somewhere around the listen backlog in number of pending
+ * lookups at any one time. This is significant on any modern SMP system.
