Asynchronous SNMP?

I'm working on a project that involves a lot of SNMP data gathering. I was wondering if it's possible to have a multi-threaded PHP script. Basically the SNMP queries I'm running are taking a long time to complete (several seconds). However I found that running multiple at the same time does not slow down the response time of any of the others. So I was wondering how easy it would be to get 5 or 6 SNMP queries running at the same time. If PHP is unable to, I'm going to have to write a C/C++ app, that will do it, then insert the results into a database. Then the PHP script will grab from there.
