Steven Allen 860d278469 make sure to not drop writes on close Before, on close, we: 1. Weren't completing the write. 2. Flushing the buffer without waiting the latency delay.

Network

The IPFS Network package handles all of the peer-to-peer networking. It connects to other hosts, it encrypts communications, it muxes messages between the network's client services and target hosts. It has multiple subcomponents:

Conn - a connection to a single Peer
- MultiConn - a set of connections to a single Peer
- SecureConn - an encrypted (tls-like) connection
Swarm - holds connections to Peers, multiplexes from/to each MultiConn
Muxer - multiplexes between Services and Swarm. Handles Requet/Reply.
- Service - connects between an outside client service and Network.
- Handler - the client service part that handles requests

It looks a bit like this:
