The real ugly truth is all of our code (mine included) is pretty laughable and bugged.

But I made no actual asynchronuous messaging system that actually can send messages with a 99.999% reliability, and hardly no noticeable memory leaks. So since I haven't coded any better, given that it works and suits my need, I use it.

And since my code is almost correct (okay, there are places where I wish to use an obfuscator to hide the hideous), replacing zmq with something else, should be quite easy.
