   5           The libevent API provides a mechanism to execute a callback function
   6           when a specific event occurs on a file descriptor or after a timeout
   7           has been reached. Furthermore, libevent also support callbacks due
   8           to signals or regular timeouts.

  10           libevent is meant to replace the event loop found in event driven
  11           network servers. An application just needs to call event_dispatch()
  12           and then add or remove events dynamically without having to change
  13           the event loop.
