> The epoll proactor uses getaddrinfo() to resolve network addresses for 
> inbound and outbound AMQP and raw connections.  These connect and listener 
> calls are thread safe so may be called from any thread and the expectation is 
> that they initiate the action without blocking.
> Solutions could entail:
> 1) using a dedicated DNS thread pool that multiplexes N serialized (blocking) 
> getaddrinfo calls over the pool (e.g. getaddrinfo_a or self managed like 
> libuv)
> 2) use some custom library that scales DNS requests without blocking
> 3) write the simplest custom proactor library that does #2.
