Description:
------------
When using stream_set_blocking on a stream will create a huge load on 
cpu. When using this function it uses up to 50% of the cpu. When not 
using this function it will only use 0.1% cpu usage.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$this->_socket = fsockopen($str, $port, $errno, $errstr);
stream_set_blocking($this->_socket, 0); // non blocking

Expected result:
----------------
An socket which will be opened fast. in a non-blocking mode.

Actual result:
--------------
An open socket. But the cpu use is enormous.

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a 
database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates 
all necessary tables, stored procedures etc.

Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

I could provide you guys with a small script
bug i can also point you to the place where the problem exists since 
it happens in Zend Framework.

http://framework.zend.com/svn/framework/standard/trunk/library/Zend/Queu
e/Stomp/Client/Connection.php

The function is used at line 79. What i see on my servers is that when 
there are simultaneous request made to the same script the problem 
increases more rapidly.

I asked for small, complete script NOT for a framework.

Whatever you want :)

Here is a complete undressed file which only has the problem.

Strike 3. As long as you can not provide a short reproducing script (like described in my first comment to this report) the bug is most likely something you did wrong.

Then we go back to the first post and there is a 2 line example of the 
problem.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$socket = fsockopen("somehost", 631313, $errno, $errstr);
stream_set_blocking($socket, 0); // non blocking

this is enough to trigger the problem.
I hope this is short enough.

Stil a FAIL:

Warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known

Wow. Nice thread, You'll go far in life with an attitude like that. I assume you are not being paid for this support. If you were my employee I would fire you on the spot.
