+perl-Net-DNS-Native provides several methods for host name resolution.
+
+It is designed to be used with event loops. All resolving is done by
+getaddrinfo(3) implemented in your system library. Since getaddrinfo()
+is blocking function and we don't want to block, calls to this function
+will be done in separate thread. This class uses system native threads
+and not perl threads, so overhead shouldn't be too big.
