+1. set SO_LINGER = 0 to try to prevent the system sending data on a closing
+socket. This MAY help some of the hanging problems (but I am now beginning
+to doubt this).
+2. do the same on the C client (which means DON'T FORGET to make it).
+3. set no nagling on the output from the node.
+4. set KEEPALIVE on TCP connections for both the node and C Client (you will
+have to make the C client again) and you will need to restart.
+5. It appears that it IS possible to set non blocking on M$ you just need to
+know how.
