It does help. However, I seem to have some problem reading messages that way. My guess is that it has something to do with the fact that the channels are non-blocking. Is there any special thing to consider when working with such channels?
You need to know the length of the message you are reading, then only call the parse method once you have the entire thing buffered. So you send the size first, then the message. On the receiving side, you read the size, then then you keep reading from the non-blocking socket until you have the whole thing buffered, then you parse it. I have code that actually does this that is open source, but it is "research quality" so it may not actually be helpful to others. But you may want to look at it:
