/* <DESC>
 * Multi-threaded transfers sharing a single connection pool
 * </DESC>
 *
 * This example fires up NUM_THREADS threads and in each single thread, it
 * downloads the same fixed URL a URL_ITERATIONS number of times. The received
 * data is just thrown away. It sets up a single shared object that holds the
 * connection cache and all easy handles in all threads share that same cache.
 *
 * This example uses pthreads for threads and mutexes, but should be easy to
 * modify to use different thread/mutex system should you want to.
