I am going to limit my responses to technical parts. It's too early in
the morning for anything else :).

I am not sure there "many" timer loops in ParaView. Please feel free
to elaborate. Even this collaboration timer comes into play only when
connected to a collaboration enabled session. Also, not collaboration
support is one of those advanced, not often used features and hence
the road is expected to be bumpy.

Having the event loop calling select on the socket is a fairly common
practice esp. in single threaded applications.
