because curl_multi is very buggy...
give me an example that it is curl... but i dont think so.

okay, i tried it with the last version (5.1.6) and it does the same...
5/6 connects working the rest brings up a timeout.

just try it youself. 
take the example script and add ~20 urls instead of just 3.
and run that in a loop. you will see the first 4, max. 6 connects
working and getting a result back. every socket per loop after the 6
working sockets just replying a timeout.

because i tested it on 3 different systems each on a different
provider.
always the same result, in every curl_multi_init the first 4 inits work
the rest gets a timeout.

to get sure its not a resolving limit or something i put up a test
script that i started 20 times at the same time with a small bash
script an screen. the 20 scripts using only 4 sockets per perl init.
but they working perfectly.
makes sure that theres no limit at the provider or on the machines for
resolving domains or whatever.
so there must be a problem in the curl_multi functions... dont know
where or what but it is a bug.
