A hint: What do you think 'asio' stands for?
A question: then why does the tutorial have such examples as "A _synchronous_ TCP daytime client", etc., that also use the demuxer? Does it mean the library emulates synchronous operations using asynchronous facilities?
Ok, may be a wrong hint then. :-) See "Services and the Demuxer" in asio_design doc. It turns out demuxer also serves as a service repository. I personally don't like that very much and wonder why those 2 different functionalities are lumped together.
