The misunderstanding on my side might be on the Serialized word.
Is this what is called Serialized lookups ? (I thought serialized meant
that you have to wait for the reply of the DNS query to send another
one).
Your understanding of "serialized" is correct, although we may be
talking about different layers in the system. Ultimately, someone must
guarantee that only one gethostbyname call takes place at a time (what I
meant by serialize). It's possible Cocoa is doing this for you, so it
looks to you like you can lookup multiple domains at the same time. But
the total time to get the answer back for all lookups will be the same
as if you had done each one separately - while one lookup is being
worked on, the others are stalled.
