Usually transports spend most of time inside select (poll, kqueue, etc) call.
And usually transport only parse packet and change its format.  So you can
write it in language that 100 times slower than C, and it still will be able to
process hundreds of packets in second.  But you will spend 10 times less time
than programming it in C.
