 * Hi All,
 * I’m developing a plugin that leverages on ratchetPHP, but once executed (plug-
   ins event start-up), the whole php runtime falls into ratchet’s loop and render
   the wordpress site stuck. I even tried exec() and system() commands without any
   success. I’m developing this so that socket server is bundled as a plugin. Otherwise
   it’s easily executable separately within the server.
 * I guess both exec() and system() functions are blocking IO.
 * Thanks,
    tdatu
