$mh curl_multi_init();

//add the two handles
curl_multi_add_handle($mh,$ch1);
curl_multi_add_handle($mh,$ch2);

$active null;
//execute the handles
do {
    
$mrc curl_multi_exec($mh$active);
} while (
$mrc == CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM);

while (
$active && $mrc == CURLM_OK) {
    if (
curl_multi_select($mh) != -1) {
        do {
            
$mrc curl_multi_exec($mh$active);
        } while (

If you fire off 10 curl requests in parallel you don't have to wait for all of them to be finished before accessing one which is already finished.

Simulate multiple threads request:
<?php
function multiple_threads_request($nodes){
       
$mh = curl_multi_init();
       
$curl_array = array();
        foreach(
$nodes as $i => $url)
        {
           
$curl_array[$i] = curl_init($url);
           
curl_setopt($curl_array[$i], CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
           
curl_multi_add_handle($mh, $curl_array[$i]);
        }
       
$running = NULL;
        do {
           
usleep(10000);
           
curl_multi_exec($mh,$running);
        } while(
$running > 0);
       
       
$res = array();
        foreach(
$nodes as $i => $url)
        {
           
$res[$url] = curl_multi_getcontent($curl_array[$i]);
        }
       
        foreach(
$nodes as $i => $url){
           
curl_multi_remove_handle($mh, $curl_array[$i]);
        }
       
curl_multi_close($mh);       
        return
$res;
}
print_r(muti_thread_request(array(
   
'http://www.example.com',
   
'http://www.example.net',
)));
?>
