+/** Right, Line Buffers. Time for an explanation as to how sendqs work. By the way, ircd people,
+ * before you jump up and down screaming, this is not anything like Adrian Chadd's linebuffer
+ * stuff done for hybrid(and never really completed.) Rather, this is (I think) where linebuffer
+ * was heading, and should have been.
+ *
+ * Enough introduction, actual explanation starts here.
+ * In IRCd, we have a sendq. Traditionally, a sendq has been a big string. Stuff is tacked onto
+ * the end, and when we can, we send the user some data off the start of it. A circular buffer.
+ *
+ * This model works okay, and is quite simplistic to code, but has a drawback in that most IRC
+ * messages are multicast: topic changes, joins, parts, channel messages, and so on.
+ * This means that for each of these messages, we must do O(n^n) amount of work: bytes ^ recipients
+ * of writes will be made to sendqs, and this is a slow and expensive operation.
+ *
+ * The solution comes with the use of this linebuffer class below, which is managed entirely by
+ * the user class (though it *may* be possible to add a server to server implementation of this later,
+ * but that's nowhere near so needed, and nowhere near so trivial, thanks to the inherited nature
+ * of buffered socket, but I digress).
+ *
+ * What this class does, in a nutshell:
+ * When we need to send a message to a user, we create a LineBuffer object. It has a reference count, and
+ * we copy the string we need to send into the LineBuffer object also.
+ * We then tack a pointer to this LineBuffer into an std::list stored in the User class.
+ * When the user writes data, a ptr is advanced depending how much of that line they wrote. If they wrote all
+ * of the line, the pointer is popped off the std::list, the ptr is reset, and the buffer's refcount is
+ * decremented - and if it reaches 0, the linebuffer is destroyed as it has fulfilled it's purpose.
+ *
+ * Effectively, this means that multicast writes become O(n) + time taken to copy message once, or just about.
+ *
+ * We gain efficiency, and much, much better RAM usage.
