what are the implications for having the application churning away doing

It almost feels like the channel concept wants a "thread per connection"

No, it means only that your application must be asynchronous -- which
all modern network apps are already.
The INN model of a single process calling epoll(2) for 800 sockets
should continue to work, as should the Apache N-sockets-per-thread
model, as should the thread-per-connection model. All of that continues
to be within the realm of application choice.
