Request Processing

  1. New request is recieved in server_listen_loop()
  2. server_listen_loop() opens the request, queueing a new job to process the request
  3. Free thread picks up the job
  4. handle_connection() retrieves basic information about the request
  5. handle_connection() attempts to query the router for a matching path
  6. handle_connection() sends the appropriate data back to the client
  7. handle_connection() closes out the client socket
